I'm running on a Celeron 1.8G with only 256M of ram. 2,000 emails/day. Average elapsed time for SA scans: 2,988.43 ms. (Max: 94 seconds. Second highest: 21 seconds) I'd say you've got something wrong<g>.
I'm running the default ruleset from 3.0.1 distro with: score BAYES_00 -4.9 score BAYES_01 -2.0 score BAYES_10 -1.5 score BAYES_20 -1.0 score BAYES_30 -0.5 score BAYES_40 0.1 score BAYES_44 0.7 score BAYES_50 1.0 score BAYES_56 1.5 score BAYES_60 2.1 score BAYES_70 3.1 score BAYES_80 4.2 score BAYES_90 4.9 score BAYES_99 5.4 score DNS_FROM_AHBL_RHSBL 4 score RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET 4 score RCVD_IN_DSBL 4 score RCVD_IN_SBL 4 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_DUL 4 score RCVD_IN_SORBS_WEB 4 score SPF_FAIL 2 score SPF_HELO_FAIL 2 score URIBL_SBL 4 score URIBL_SBL 4 score URIBL_WS_SURBL 4 trusted_networks 172.0.0.0/8 in my local.cf Oh, I didn't read far enough to see the machine specs! Ouch! Mine (I thought it was a "toy" server, Celeron at that) is probably doing so well because I'm on a fairly idle T1 so all the DNS traffic is pretty fast. But my "toy" is a lot more than 166 Mhz. A 2Ghz Cheapo CPU/Motherboard/0.5G ram is probably $300 or less. Check TigerDirect or somewhere and UPGRADE THAT PUPPY!

Yeah...that's the performance you're going to get. My system is an Athlon 2GHz, with half a gig of RAM, and I'm seeing today's performance like this: Total number of emails processed by the spam filter : 81 Number of spams : 12 ( 14.81%) Number of clean messages : 69 ( 85.19%) Average message analysis time : 9.96 seconds Average spam analysis time : 7.94 seconds Average clean message analysis time : 10.31 seconds Average message score : -2.87 Average spam score : 14.57 Average clean message score : -5.90 Total spam volume : 39 kbytes Total clean volume : 417 kbytes This is actually a little high, but one of the last messages my server sent out was fairly large, and went out to over 150 people from a listserv. -- Mike Burger http://www.bubbanfriends.org Visit the Dog Pound II BBS telnet://dogpound2.citadel.org or http://dogpound2.citadel.org To be notified of updates to the web site, visit http://www.bubbanfriends.org/mailman/listinfo/site-update, or send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a message of: subscribe
