Just a quick question to those that are using those two together.
I have:
$max_servers = 10;
$max_requests = 15;
in amavisd.conf.
But the box's load average seems to be hovering around 2.00 all the time.
Sometimes a little lower, sometimes higher.
That is low for a quad CPU system. You want to keep load under 2.00 *per
CPU*.
Quax 500mhz Xeon, ultra 160gb disks, 1gb RAM. It's a PowerEdge 6350.
What do you guys have set for max_servers & stuff and what kind of
hardware? What kind of performance are you seeing?
Question: how many messages per day pass through SpamAssassin?
And how well have you found amavisd-new, postfix and SpamAssassin to
interact?
Excellent.
(note: please don't tell me to switch to mailscanner yet. hah.)
I never would.
This setup has been working well for quite a while but I'm almost wondering
if it's time to upgrade.
Question: on average how long does it take amavisd-new/SpamAssassin to
process a message?
Has greylisting helped you out at all?
It can make a hugh difference. If you decide to go with it you should look
at some form of selective greylisting. I also use a short (59 second) delay.
Thanks!
