Greetings:
SURBL does not appear to work with network tests totally disabled (i.e. using --local in the spamd startup).
No network tests:
0.1 to 0.6 seconds to score emails as spam or ham
Approximately 90% accuracy on tagging spam correctly
Approximately 2% false positives tagging ham as spamNetwork tests (for SURBL)
11.0 to over 16 seconds to score emails as spam or ham
Approximately 95% accuracy on tagging spam correctly
Approximately 1 to 2% false positives tagging ham as spamThanks to input from this mailing list, we've disabled almost all of the network tests.
This has helped tremendously brining the scoring time down to an average of 3 to 4 seconds per email with the range of times from 0.4 seconds to 8 seconds.
Thank you.

Or you could boost the SURBL scores, or lower your spam threshold. :-)
