If I want to block subjects matching "foo" or "bar", is it more efficient to write two regexps or a single "foo|bar" regexp?
I'd think a single regexp is more efficient, but SpamAssassin ships w/ rule-sets that have multiple rules. Given how many spams people get, even a small improvement in efficiency would help? Or are there multiple rules because the scores are different and have to be optimized differently? -- We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying to understand and assimilate technology.
