Performance between SpamAssassin 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 and 3.2.3

[Rose, Bobby]

Yeh that might be it.  I checked the changelog and saw that the DNS
changes were the only real big change between 3.2.1. and 3.2.2 so what I
did was installed 3.2.3 and replaced the Dns.pm with the version from
3.2.1.  I'll know if that is the problem lies there later on today as
traffic load increases.

I grepped my logs from between the versions focusing on batches of 30
and I clearly see differences of 100 to 150 secs between 3.2.1 and the
later versions.  If anyone wants to check their times use this 
	egrep -e"Batch \(30 messages\) processed in" maillog

Running spamassassin -D -t <quarantined file name> reveals a lot.

I'm running SA with the patch from

  http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5589

and the debug output made that one pretty obvious.

Cheers,

Phil
