Hi there -
Has anybody tried to optimize SpamAssassin for processing speed?
I've got lots of RAM to work with and would like to optimize so emails are processed most efficiently.
Currently I have 12 max children and the default for Max Connections Per Child. I'm not sure if there are many moves to be made here, given that cpanel offers no means of changing the bulk of SpamAssassin default settings.
I see that my spam emails average about 12-14 seconds for processing. This is on an 8-core hyper-threaded box and on a 12-core hyper-threaded box!
Are there any productive changes I can make to improve upon that? I'd not mind throwing a few more gig of RAM at this, and I also wonder if there's a way to have SA make more efficient use of a multi-threaded machine similar to what PIGZ has done for compression.
Thanks.
Mike
