Re: procmail slow on big files?

calling external programs slows it down, looping slows it down --
you probably need to walk through and optimize your filtering. I'm not
the best person to help you there, but post the procmailrc and someone
will probably help.

Hello,

 We're running procmail on our primary mail server as an anti spam
agent. With the amount of rules we have in the /etc/procmailrc file it
gets quite slow when it's processing a 3 megabite file. Is there any
tweaks we can do to speed this up? When we get 4-5 emails being processed
at once, the load gets quite high on our duel P3 600 machine.
