I mean it depends how your SA is configured. Some of the test are based on data on remove databases (all the RBL test, Razor/Pysor, Dcc...) depending on your network connectivity, it can take some time before you get a response for these various tests. But once again, this is not an issue because it does not create any load on your server: while SA is waiting for a network test to finish, the server can process other emails. I have an average SA processing time comprised between 10 and 15 seconds. Olivier
