I am still stuck with monty: http://montyspam.net/ (the wpmu version) but the single wordpress version is still in beta.

Secondly, I'm using WP-SpamFree. I note is does have a large code fingerprint, but my understanding (from looking at a page load analysis) is it does not load all that into the reader's browser, it is back-end code; have you found to the contrary, or is your objection to its code size out of principle?
