bogofilter is a C-based statistical spam filtering ..yada..yada..yada.
And it works acceptably for individual users (since it uses BDB for token storage). I also question the author's knowledge of Berkeley DB usage, since he specifically discusses NFS usage which is strictly forbidden for all but a tiny number of NFS implementations (due to the BDB shared memory map requirements).
However, for a larger installation, bogofilter simply won't work well, because it doesn't support a multiuser database (like MySQL or PostgreSQL).
While this of course depends on your definition of "larger", some people seem to think otherwise:
