I was just thinking about PersistentPerl (see CPAN)... has anyone run
spamassassin under it?  It would seem to eliminate many of the issues
with the startup delays for running SA if you get a burst of mail, and
you'd get the benefit of your own private instance of an SA "daemon"
which would automagically disappear after a while of no activity.

Personally, I don't need it now since I run under amavisd-new, but
perhaps in another life I may...
