I think it's this:

"This works by analysing message text and HTML for URLs, extracting the
domain names from those, querying their NS records in DNS, resolving the
hostnames used therein, and querying various DNS blocklists for those IP
addresses. This is quite effective."

And "querying various DNS blocklists" costs a lot of time, i think.
Without it for me the spam-detection rate is slightly worse, but my
client sometimes got stuck, because they took to long. Now I have 3
spam-messages, out of 250 a day, coming through, which I can sort out by
hand.
