But the way qmail-rbl works it will deny the mail based on the lookup, not weight it appropiatly.
Then put the more 'sane' rbls[1] in your run script which will reduce a bit of your incoming spam (that SA won't have to scan), and the ones you wish SA to add weight to instead of bouncing outright leave in SA's config but that will still reduce the number of DNS lookups that SA will need to do for each email...

These are the only two I use 'on the front lines':
/usr/local/bin/rblsmtpd -r relays.ordb.org -r sbl.spamhaus.org \
Also, are you running DJB's dnscache? That might improve your DNS caching response times...
Other than that, I'm chuck outta idears...[2]

[1] The ones I have listed don't stop a *ton* of spam, but to my knowledge only stopped 1 person from emailing my site in the last 1.5 years -- and I fixed it by contacting the sysadmin of the ISP to help them get delisted.
[2] BTW, my server is an Athlon 1800+ w/512Meg RAM, recently upgraded to 2 9Gig SCSI HDs (one for /var/qmail/queue; the other is everything else) -- when I had 1 SCSI drive, uptime stats showed 1.7->3.5, once I upgraded, uptime stats showed 0.4->0.8 - my mail volume is roughly 30K/day - altho I don't have SA site-wide - only about 1/3 of my mail is piped thru SA... hope the stats help; ask if you need more comparison info...
