After rebooting (~100 new messages) using my box is no fun at all due to a lot of spamassassin processes running. Except for using spamd what can I do against this? I'm running SA on Debian woody with exim as MTA and fetchmail. Running the MTA nicely (and therefore all of its childs including procmail and spamassassin I assume) is my first guess.

Maybe processing only one a message at a time would be better as all this fork/exec accounts for a lot of CPU/disk load, too.
