I can't speak for spamassassin, because I don't use it nor saw any
performancetests. But we use a dual Pentium III 1Ghz, 2 Gb RAM and fast
scsi-raid for a mailserver with virusscanning using amavis. Tests have
shown, that 30000 Mails within 3 hours with different attachement-sizes
(10kb to 5mb) are not a problem at all (the load-average is at 4.0 and the
machine is usable as before). We use amavisd with "antivir" (by H+B EDV) as
virusscanner. And exim3.
