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.
