Warren,
How are you running sa-learn? Are you talking about the autolearn option?
(apparently)
Perhaps your bayes journal hasn't sync'd in a while (or ever). Try running
# sa-learn -u vpopmail --force-expire
# chown vpopmail:vchkpw /home/vpopmail/.spamassassin/bayes_toks
and see if that doesn't speed things up. What does this sa-learn report when
you run it?
