The latest bigevil.cf needs about 40 - 50 MB *alone*! Together with 
several SARE rules our spamd processes were around 90 MB lately. That's 
where I removed bigevil (and activated SURBL on 3.0) and that other big 
ruleset (don't remember the name at the moment), so that our spamd prcess 
is now about 50 MB. I didn't see much difference in detection on the 2.63 
systems, so bigevil is simply not worth the huge memory consumption.
