Amavisd-new launches spamassasin in perl form rather then use spamd.

The fedora core machines running amavisd-new are both 2.4 dual xeons with
4gb of memory
Amavisd-new virus scanning and spam scanning with spamassasin is using about
18% cpu, and for everything we have about 1.8gb of memory in use, but that
includes a virtual workspace for amavisd-new, which makes it much faster
then doing it on disk.  We average a 1.12 load on the servers.  We are also
using a raid 10 array of 4 ultra 320 scsi disks for faster write for the
sendmail queues.
