Same experience here. Even with Evo 1.4.x SA is dead slow up to a point
were it is no longer acceptable. Makes you wonder why something like
DSPAM (http://www.nuclearelephant.com/projects/dspam/) was not included
in the distro. It's written in C, runs at the server level instead of
user level (unless you want it to), seems quite a bit faster than SA and
iirc is found to be better at filtering SPAM than SA.

Time for a change?
