<What was the last thing that spamd was doing?>
nothing jumped out at me from the log. I don't remember if it stopped mid-message or seemed to be waiting for the next one. I'll try to check the next time it happens.

<And do you run bayes? >
I've never fed it any messages.  pretty sure the checking log says autolearn=no.  however, it's possible I need to actively turn it off. should I set something in local.cf to 0 to avoid some overhead?

<Also, what is the specs on your mail stream and the box running spamd. >
spamd is on a reasonably new computer although not the hottest by far. it's a celeron with 512meg of ram.  there are about 50megs of ram free with 15 children running.  it kept up until a few weeks ago.  the biggest backlog I've seen was 6000 messages.  a few times it was 2,000.  yesterday it was only 600.  when things are running normally there are only 1 or 2 messages queued up.

<Do you limit messages by size (say 300KB)? Winspamc default limit is 256KB, but that can be overridden.>
running defaults.
