It looks like spamassassin is attempting to perform a bayes expiry, and

in a while, and it is slow.

I was not killing it, I  was  only  watching  the  logfiles  using  tail
instead of a nice file  on  TV.   Spamassassin  took  at  the  beginning
several minutes and then after several 100 messages over 20 minutes  per
message...

SA does have an internal time for how long it is willing to wait on the expiry. SA was probably killing the expiry process.

If you want to, you can run sa-learn --force-expire in order to make
expiry run manually. If no expiry has been run recently, SA will attempt
to do so during mail delivery.

Oops... runing...

Hmmm, I have found a bunch of "bayes_toks.expireNNNNN" in the folder...

Yes, that is a clear sign of interrupted bayes expiry attempts.

At this point you should probably turn off auto-expire and run a manual expiry from cron daily.

I asume, the "bayes_toks.expireNNNNN" are  made  by  previously  run  of
"expire" and left over...  I deleted it...

They remain when an expiry has been interrupted.
