I upgraded for SpamAssassin 2.44 to 2.55 and now my box has gone from a loadaverage of about 0.5 - 2 to about 1.5 - 20+ and I am running a dual 2.4G Zeon Proliant ml350 with 2Gb of ram and 4 36Gb Raid 0+1.
Looking at vmstat and other I can see that the CPU is being nailed, the disk I/O is low.
So I stopped did a use_bayes 0 and now my CPU util is back to normal. Is this normal?? I block about 4300-4500 mails in 24 hours so that's about 180 - 190 mails per hour.
Make sure you've got DB_File installed (via CPAN) as any of the other types of database that SA will drop back to using, such as GDBM etc do not scale up and are grossly inefficient, with very high resource use.
If you do install DB_File you'll find you have to delete your bayes database and let it start again.
