I've deployed SA into my environment, and I'm trying to add some training

The server is fairly active (several thousand mailboxes, hundreds of messages
per second).
When attemting to sa-learn some spam, it runs for a few moments, then gets:
Jul 19 13:12:03.797 [5437] dbg: locker: safe_lock: trying to get lock on
/var/spamassassin/bayes_db/bayes with 175 retries
It doesn't seem to get anywhere, it's been running for several minutes that
way.
Do you happen to have autolearn enabled? If so, turn it off.
I suspect that this is simply because my activity level in bayes is higher
than a flat file may support.
Is this something I should fix on a flat file bayes DB, or should I look at
going to Bayes-SQL?
Redis would probably be better.
Also, if you don't have autolearn enabled and you're using flat files, you
could learn into an offline database and when done copy the files over to
the live instance (ideally by directory renaming to minimize the window).
