When this problem occurs restarted spamd and runs approximately 20 minutes and then switch back to the same problem.

Correct. When you restart the spamd proccess, it frees up memory that was used. Once spamd gets running again, it starts taking up memory. If you run out of memory, your server starts to swap. Once your server starts to swap, things slow down dramatically. The amount of memory each spamd process will take depends upon what rules you have loaded and how many.

Here, our filter server (16Gb RAM) with spamd startup parameters:

    --min-children=9 --max-children=36 --min-spare=9 --max-spare=18

has been running flawless with no issues for over a year. Each spamd process on our filter server takes up aproximately 100meg.
