I would diagnose the SA problem by running amavisd-new in
debug-sa mode to discover if there are network issues, like razor or DCC or
pyzor timing out. Upgrade razor to 2.75 - there are known vulnerabilities
with earlier versions. Turn log_level up to 5 and gather additional
evidence. You could temporarily bypass network tests in SA
($sa_local_tests_only = 1;) and see if that make a difference.
How much free memory do you have? Are you trying to run more
$max_servers than the system is capable of handling? What MTA are you
using? If you are using Postfix, make sure you match up $max_servers
in amavisd.conf with maxproc in master.cf, for example:

$max_servers = 4;

smtp-amavis     unix    -       -       -       -       4       smtp

Start reading from page 68 of http://www.heinlein-support.de/upload/martinec.pdf
