First speed test of version 4

[Julian Field]

This test was done on a dual-CPU 1GHz Pentium 3 box with 512Mb RAM.
It's not very fast by modern standards but was quite nice when I bought it
a few years ago...

Version 3 processed 20,000 messages in 415.5 minutes.
This scales up to 69314 messages per day.

Version 4 processes 20,000 messages in 130.3 minutes.
This scales up to 221028 messages per day.

So version 4 ran 3.2 times faster than version 3 on the same hardware, with
the same MailScanner configuration, with the same 20,000 messages.

Vrrrooooommmmmm........
