We have two servers, one for dialups with a single domain and 5000 accounts, another for domain accounts, both machines are the same hardware. Domain mail - a Sparc 20 with 512mb ram and dual 195mhz CPUs. We have 200+ domains and over 1000 accounts with spamfiltering. We trigger spamc from .qmail files via a custom script, creating each user a separate prefs and bayes database. We average 3 to 9 seconds to process a message at the rate of 7k to 10k messages a day through SA. Ok...What I did to lower processing time, I dropped all DNS checks. I let rblsmtpd do that, that is 30k messages a day SA doesn't have to process. I dropped Razor. I dropped DCC. I moved spamc to the .qmail file, no sense processing a message that has no local delivery. qmail, SA 2.55. Hope that helps.
