Hello, I'm running a Slack 10 system with mostly self-compiled software. Using SA version 3.0.1. Athlon 2600 w/ 512meg + 120gb SATA harddrive.
Here is my problem. I downloaded and compiled a new version of perl. running spamassassin against the sample-spam.txt and sample-nospam.txt files yields scan times that are far more than they should: $ time spamassassin -t < sample-spam.txt > /dev/null real 0m1.056s Now, I had this exact problem on another machine, identical setup. I simply removed the new perl, installed the package from slackware, and it runs much faster: $ time spamassassin -t < sample-spam.txt > /dev/null real 0m0.518s spamc has the same problem: Packaged perl: time spamc < sample-spam.txt > /dev/null real 0m0.046s perl from source: $ time spamc < sample-spam.txt > /dev/null real 0m1.190s Both were perl 5.8.4. I cannot seem to track down what is causing this. All the perl modules are the same as well. Is there some specific option that perl needs to be compiled with to make this run properly? Thanks in advance, Bryan
