spamd process

[Khalid Waheed <kh...@eim.ae>]

Is there any option to set min and max child process of spamd?

Is spamd-child process is multi threaded, or it handles single message 
at a time?? how spamd-parent process allocate
message to its child, I mean scheduling?

It's in the spamd man page: "-m #" sets the max # of child processes

spamd is process based, so each process gets a message.

I'm not sure what you're asking here.  The child receives the connection
from the client, reads in the mail, processes it, then returns the result
before closing the connection.  Pretty standard.
