This is not enough information.

How many users?

How much mail is being transmitted?

Without knowing more, but wanting to help, I believe SASL could be the
culprit.  Try restarting saslauthd:

# saslauthd -n 0

The -n option forces saslauthd to fork a new process for each connection,
which, according to the man page, "can help to solve leaks in some
deployments".
