| JSpamFilter is built for speed: email messages often take less than 30 milliseconds to analyze on a 1.33 GHz Pentium III with 512 MB RAM running Microsoft Windows 2000 Server. Using just 64 MB of RAM on the above system, the Enterprise version of JSpamFilter can easily handle 1,000 messages per minute. |
|
| 1 message / 30 milliseconds |
= |
1 message / 0.030 seconds |
= |
100 messages / 3 seconds |
= |
2,000 messages / 60 seconds |
|
| We certainly don't mean to belabour the point, just illustrate that this performance estimate is well within JSpamFilter's capacity. |
|
| JSpamFilter can run on any machine in the mail flow prior to the mail server, including gateways, the mail server itself, or on its own separate machine. |
|
| We recommend having 64 MB free RAM for JSpamFilter. This is dependent on the number of expected messages per second, more or less RAM might be appropriate depending on throughput volume. Essentially any hardware supporting the one of the listed operating system platforms will be adequate, we recommend processor speeds of at least 400 MHz. |
