I run a P733 with 384MB RAM with Red Hat 7.3. Use Postfix/Procmail/html-trap (Hardin's Sanitizer)/SpamAssassin combination. Use DCC, DNSBLs, BigEvil/NovRules/OctRules, Jennifer's Popcorn/Backhair/Weeds/Cpox, and Bayes with SA. The box is relay only. No local mail.
I also keep a copy of all headers of all mail, and messages scoring between 8.0 and 10.0 to detect false positives in mbox files. I peak at 3500 messages per hour and 48,000 per day. I found that the old BigEvil that used the rawbody would bog me down, but the new URI based BigEvil can keep up. With all network checks and custom rules, I average analysis time is 4.1 seconds. Postfix shows processing 60,000 messages per day, as some are outbound. I have an identical box used for outbound relay and failover. I would say that this is about peak for this combination. I'd like to get RAM up to 512MB to handle queue backups when there is downstream mail problems (Exchange/Firewall issues). <<Dan>> | -----Original Message----- | From: Andy Donovan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Sent: Monday, January 12, 2004 10:39 AM | To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Subject: [SAtalk] SA Performance ....... | | Could I ask a quick poll on the # of messages your | configuration is able to process per minute .. its time for | me to move platforms and I'm trying to plan for growth ..... | your comments would be extremely useful. | | I'd be willing to compile a summary should you wish to e-mail | me direct ... | | A. | | | | ------------------------------------------------------- | This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software. | Perforce is the Fast Software Configuration Management System | offering advanced branching capabilities and atomic changes | on 50+ platforms. | Free Eval! http://www.perforce.com/perforce/loadprog.html | _______________________________________________ | Spamassassin-talk mailing list | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk | ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
