Hmm, my understanding of "load" is "number of processes in the WAIT queue",
which with -m 2 can only be 3 for SA -- so there's 12 other things queued
waiting for the CPU on your box...  I suppose it might be that those things
don't need a lot of CPU time, and spamd is hogging, but I would have expected
the scheduler to give those "easy" processes some extra slices if they need them
-- makes me think your system might be running way overloaded even without
adding SA to it.
