Yes, the situation I'm talking about is lots of spamd processes running at once using lots of memory. (Not to mention the local delivery processes running at the same time as well) Spamd using 800MB of ram is a bug, and one which I've never encountered yet in months of using spamd, so it's probably something to do with your particular config.....(perhaps a bug or corrupt installation of your version of Perl ?)
