I was getting long delays and contention on the lock files when running
spamd with the '-D' option... Once that was removed, the machine's been
perforating without a hitch.

I have encountered high loads on my system, and running 'top' revealed a
bunch of spamassassin processes crunching away.

I don't believe the problem is at all related to razor, since I run razor
before spamassassin, and spamassassin is configured to skip the razor check.
Yet the system load is due to spamassassin processes queuing up waiting for
system resources.

This is despite using the compiled spamc/spamd version of spamassassin.  If
you're not using spamd instead of the spamassassin perl script, you might
give that a try.  My system is a lowly P200 MMX.  It doesn't sound as though
your system ought to be having such problems unless it's running out of RAM.
