How do I increase/decrease the amount of SpamAssassin children that start up?
To do this, you would edit /etc/sysconfig/spamassassin and adjust the -m option to your liking. For instance, if you wanted to increase the SA children from 5 (the default) to 10, you would modify the following line:
SPAMDOPTIONS=”-d -c -m5 -H” to read:
SPAMDOPTIONS=”-d -c -m10 -H”
