Performance between SpamAssassin 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 and 3.2.3

[Randal, Phil]

Oh, I would have tried 3.2.3 with the aforementioned patch to see if
that made a difference too, because that patch will end up in 3.2.4.

Is there any chance that you can do that?  The patch affects more than
DNS.pm, though.

If there's still an issue on 3.2.3 with the patch from bug 5589 then you
should add a note to that bug and raise the issue on the Spamassassin
Users mailing list too.

Cheers,

Phil
