Mailscanner and SA performance

[Rose, Bobby]

Also keep in mind that if you make changes to your SA rules, that you'll
also have to restart Mailscanner so that it loads those changes.
CompileNow() keeps SA/Mailscanner from having to reread the rules at
every call in the same fashion that SpamD works.  However, Mailscanner
will reread the rules every 4 hours (default) when it reloads itself to
clear any collected perl garbage.

Just as a side note, can I remind you that SA performance will be
greatly improved by using a recent version of MailScanner and enabling
the "Compile SpamAssassin Once" option.
