You are correct. My bad.

Dan,
I seem to recall trying to use the AppParameters key and having
difficulty with it. I think that you might want to try removing that
key and putting everything in the Parameters key, or at least that
works for me. If you change
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Sniffer\Parameters in
RegEdit to the following it might fix the issue that you are having:
C:\IMail\Declude\Sniffer\ ***RULEBASE-NAME*** .exe
***AUTH-CODE*** persistent
You should of course adjust the path and service name as well.
The directions that I provided are working perfectly on my server so
far as I can tell. I'm running dual 3.2 Ghz 1 MB cache Xeons with 5 x
15,000 RPM drives in RAID 5. The following three debug log entries
shows between 300 ms and 550 ms per message:

I'm not sure why people use FireDaemon for this. My experience with
SRVANY.exe has been absolutely flawless since I integrated this, and it
has worked on both Win2k and Windows 2003.

OK, I have managed to get SOMETHING working, but it still seems too slow
and something is still not right. I originally set up the persistent
sniffer using the instructions from this post:
http://www.mail-archive.com/sniffer@sortmonster.com/msg00169.html
This uses SRVANY.exe. I conjectured that possibly the service needed a
home directory, so I added an AppDirectory value to the sniffer
service's "Parameters" key in the registry. This value is set to the
directory sniffer resides in. I also (based on my reading of the
srvany.exe documentation) added another value to the same key called
AppParameters. This is set to my auth code followed by a space,
followed by the word persistent.
Now when I start the service, the time spent processing a single message
goes down to something around 2 seconds, but is still far longer than
the non-service version. I also still had no .stat file in my sniffer
directory. I did get a *.SVR file, which I never got before.
So then I'm thinking, let's just make sure that I have the latest
version of sniffer. I downloaded that, did the necessary renaming of
the files and then started the service. NOW there is a
*.persistent.stat file. However, the scan time is still at around 2
seconds.
Average Scan times (based on average scan times of 5 emails each):
Without sniffer service running: .033 seconds
With sniffer service running: 2.244 seconds
The *.persistent.stat file has the following contents:
TicToc: 1122990610
Loop: 512
Poll: 445
Jobs: 34
Secs: 303
Msg/Min: 6.73267
Current-Load: 8.69565
Average-Load: 10.6371
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Dan Horne
