minor tweaks to enhance performance and lower cpu usage in high perfomance environments :

copy the following dll files into the directory where the spamfilter exe resides :

advapi32.dll

comsvcs.dll

msjet40.dll (if access is used)

oledb32.dll

rpcrt4.dll

enable connection pooling on the access or sql odbc driver and put 300 seconds in place

(use odbc in control panel to enable)

this greatly enhanced my performance.

 

another nice tweak :

if a dual cpu machine is dedicated used,  download process explorer from sysinternals,

and run the spamfilter service on cpu 1 (above normal priority) and a caching forwarding dns server on cpu 2 (normal priority)

use the local dns server for rbl lookups.(it caches round trip rbl`s aka ignorant spammers)

best wishes for all in 2004 !

The connection pooling is a good idea, but copying those DLLs into the folder is only going to cause you grief when you install a Service Pack or some other app that upgrades any of those DLLs....

or it keeps running, because there or no new unwanted ghosted features in the ms$ dll`s ...
