RelayChecker too slow?

[Kosmaj <ko...@yahoo.com>]

Hello,
I'm new to the list. I joined a week ago.
I'm using 3.1.7 on Windows through JSpamAssassin and
Outlook Express. I'm not using Bayes yet.
A few days ago in order to fight stock and gif spam
I installed as my first plug-ins ImageInfo and RelayChecker-0.3.
I was very happy with RC because in a number of cases it
was the only rule capable to detect spam. But then
I noticed that I have more undetected spam, without
any SA header, with only "+OK nnn octets" signature
by JSA. I disabled RC and in last 2 hrs I got SA header in
every message. JSA has an internal timeout of 20 sec
which I cannot change without rebuilding the whole
application. Is there a way to speed up RC?
I'm running the default setup with:
relaychecker_pass_auth  0
relaychecker_reduced_dns  0

OTOH, in ImageInfo I changed the rule for DC_GIF_UNO_LARGO
by reducing minimum __GIF_AREA_ from 180k to 40k pixels.
I collected about 10 different spam GIFs and found only
two of them larger than 180k pixels.

Any hints about speeding up RC, or using other rules
(plug-ins) instead will be greatly appreciated.
[I'm not using Razor and DCC since I read that it's
hard to have them running on Windows. BTW, I handle about
400 mails a day, 80% of them are spam.]

Thanks,
Kosmaj

Thanks for your help!

With relaychecker_reduced_dns set to 1 JSA successfully
processed next 150 messages without a single time-out fialure!
While RC worked and was hit many times.

try setting that last one to 1.

relaychecker_reduced_dns  1


Let me know how that goes.
