Hi guys
SA3 is working great for me - I've only had one false negative since installing and it's caught over 170 spam messages so far on my account.
But I noticed that memory usage has been a lot more since installing it, see http://matt.gresleyrovers.com/pictures/mem-sa3.png
I'm only using the default rule sets and hardly any settings have been touched since install (other than adding a few whitelist entries and changing the rewrite_header Subject).
Same here, FreeBSD 4.8 with 1.5 gigs of RAM, had an up time of 116 days with SA 2.x and max 10 children and quite a few additional rules sets. No swap used at all.
Installed SA 3.x yesterday, same machine, no additional rules sets, same max 10 children, 153 megs of swap currently in use.
Seems that 3.x uses more memory and my load avg is always above 1 BUT it also seems that the scan times are now all around 2 seconds and the load avg doesn't spike as much as it did under 2.x.
Regards,
Rick
