My mail box is an old clunker, hauled out of the closet and put back into
service...it's a P-200, running RH9. My current configuration has spamc
called on arriving messages via the global procmailrc, prior to delivery -
single shared database for all users. Unfortunately, due to the way mail
arrives on the box (via cron'd fetchmail), the mail-feed is 'lumpy',
and processing big chunks of messages is grinding things to a crawl. 
I've lowered the maximum message size and I'm running spamd with '-m 3'
to lower the number of simultaneous threads. What else can I do to 
reduce the processing overhead?

It occurred to me that there might be certain tests that are particularly
costly for larger messages, and that I could run large messages through a 
reduced battery of tests, but I'm not sure if that's actually so.
