Performance between SpamAssassin 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 and 3.2.3

[Julian Field]

You need to run MailScanner with both the debug flags
    MailScanner --debug --debug-sa
and thump Ctrl-S to stop the output when the output appears to stop at 
all. Thump Ctrl-Q to restart the output.
You need to read just before and after the pause to see what it was 
trying to do at the time.

Hope that helps,
Jules.
