Two issues with MailScanner

Hello,

I'm running a FreeBSD 10.3 system on amd64 in a vps. I'm using the
latest 3.1 of Postfix and MailScanner 4.85.2.

I can send and receive mail, so that is working and it's all going
through MailScanner so that's good.

I've got two issues. One is a performance issue of MailScanner. I sent
a message through, from an external email client going over tls to my
gmail account. When the message hit postfix it passed it off to
MailScanner for processing at 12:33. MailScanner processed and
returned it to Postfix but did so at 12:36 so I've got a three minute
processing delay. Is there anything I can do to speed that up?

My second issue also related to a sent message though not the same one
as discussed in the last paragraph, every message I'm sending through
is getting a spam subject tag applied, and a spam score of 2. I'm
going to include anomized headers at the end of this message.

I'd appreciate any help on either of these issues.

Thanks.
Dave.
