Its a bit soon to tell but I think this helped a bunch.
>>"If running the bayes database in a file (DB_File) consider adding
"bayes_learn_to_journal 1" to spam.assassin.prefs.conf to help with
lock contention. This can really help with busy systems. If you are
worried you might lose some bayes data, you can add a 'sa-learn –sync'
to cron every hour or so to flush the journal to the DB."
Seems to rattle the drive much less.
Thanks.
