I think the seeking for the Razor server on startup is a bug; I'm just getting the latest version of spamassassin from testing so perhaps it has been fixed. I find that using Razor is very slow. I've therefore included the -L switch in /etc/default/spamassassin to make filtering local and this has speeded things up greatly without much increase in spam getting through.
