Greetings, First let me apologize if this has been covered before but for the last several days I have been unable to search the arcchives for this list (the search allways times out).
That said... I've been using spamassassin (currently 2.31) for a long time now on an old PII-266 under a sort-of Redhat 6.X system (with perl 5.6.1) without problems, a typical 4k message cleaned in <1 sec. and I can't find anything in the logs greater than 3 seconds. Over the last several days I've been experimenting with stock RH 8.0 (perl 5.8.0-55, spamassassin 2.31-16 - both came with the distribution) in preparation for moving to it, and am getting truly horrible performance from spamassassin (spamc/spamd invoked from procmail). For example it took 8 seconds to clean the 3k "Welcome to the "Spamassassin-talk" mailing list" message from this list. And picking a random recent maillog entry: a 50k message took 72 seconds (and I've watched, this is at 100% CPU). I can't use this. I have tried setting LANG=en_US as recommended at http://spamassassin.org/dist/INSTALL but it didn't help. I see that there are many more entries in /usr/share/spamassassin/ in the old 2.31 install - is this the problem? Or is it something else? I'd really appreciate any help anyone might be able to offer. Thanks, Mark ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Scholarships for Techies!
