Depends on MX_REQUESTS (-r argument to mimedefang-multiplexor), how many
requests the slave in question has already made, and how many requests
your system goes through during the timeframe in question.

Depending on what you are logging (I like to log everything if possible,
and use scripts to sort out the rest) you should be able to calculate
slave lifetime from the logfiles by looking at the frequency of slave
startup and kills due to max requests being hit.
