Spamassassin slows things down like mad!

I use Sendmail, milter-greylist, SpamAssassin with spamass-milter and
ClamAV on my mail server.
I get maybe one piece of junk mail that actually makes it into my Inbox
per month.
Greylisting knocks out over 90% of the junk, then SA catches the rest.
It's a thing of beauty.
No performance issues, either. If SA is running slowly, I would look
really closely at what network tests are enabled. Do you have one of the
broken versions of Net::DNS installed? Do you have network tests which
are querying servers that aren't there?
I am running SA at a *bunch* of client sites and have seen no such
slowdown. I am guessing that you have a configuration problem.
