Try running spamassassin in "daemon" mode - i.e. as spamd. Then filter your
messages using spamc. You can run spamd as part of the normal system startup.
The actual spamassassin code is all written in Perl and the startup overhead
is pretty large. When run as spamd you don't have to reload and interpret
the Perl for every message.
