How's your spam situation look?

A few years ago, my approx 1GHz Pentium-something? server was spending too much cpu filtering messages in spamassassin, even after moving to spamc.  Granted, my mail email address escaped to the spam world a while ago, and I also tend to accept lots of aliased addresses.

There were other drivers (I wanted to play w/ virtual machines more), but I swapped to a then-current 4-core AMD Phenom 9650 and was much happier.

later!
