[Test loadavg in filtering decisions]
Seems kind of pointless. Have you actually measured how larger
messages affect cpu usage? Especially since usually there are much
less messages the larger they get.
I agree. LoadAVG is a pretty useless measurement. And relaxing your
filtering based on load gives spammers a clear signal how to defeat
your filter.
I think you're looking at it the wrong way around. You start with the
max size that is currently in use. You then increase the max size when
the box isn't busy.
You are not relaxing the filtering, you are tightening it.
