I'm running MailScanner version:
$Id: mailscanner,v 1.142.2.145 2004/08/01 16:34:47 jkf Exp $

I've been getting a lot of these:

Sep  9 23:20:56 s15111287 MailScanner[13385]: SpamAssassin timed out
and was killed, failure 2 of 20

I'm not sure what's killing it.  I've added the "score
DNS_FROM_RFCI_DSN 0.0" like you did above and that seemed to shorten
the response time.

I also noticed my bayes database was around 8MB so I did a
--force-expire and it brought it down to about 5MB.

On another note, I've been seeing a ton of these "did not issue
MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MTA" messages in my maillog.

Sep  9 23:20:06 s15111287 sendmail[13734]: i8A3JunX013734:

Any ideas?
