Seems to be. I run postfix + amavisd-new (with ClamAV and SA) and the
res size runs around 68 MB. I'm using most, but not all, of the SARE
rules. On this filter box, with 1 GB of memory, it is CPU bound. Dual
400 MHz Xeons and the load average runs around 7.5. Average of 60 msg/m
of incoming mail (peak 370 msg/m). (This is without FuzzyOCR.)
