You don't want spamd to spill over into swap. It will crawl so slow it will crash your machine. RTFM at http://www.spamassassin.org/doc/spamd.html and check out the -m option. I too had a similar problem until I set an appropriate number of maximum connections. Example: if spamd takes up 20 MB and you only have typically 200 MB free than set -m to less than 10 so you don't go into swap. Worked like a charm for me. cheers, Colin Colin A.
