This is the appropriate list. How, exactly, are you calling SA? Normally folks use spamc/spamd. In which case, spamd by default limits it's own instances. Spamcs are light-weight, being simple C programs. If you're just calling "spamassassin" from a procmail script, set things up so spamd gets loaded at boot time and start calling spamc from your procmail instead.
