Sounds like you are swapping.  You can check top or vmstat to see for =20

m NNN" flag to spamd_flags in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sa-spamd.sh.

Excuse my ignorance  ;

Here's the original line

spamd_flags=3D${spamd_flags:-"-c -d  -r ${spamd_pidfile}"}

spamd_flags=3D${spamd_flags:-"-c -d  -r - m 20 ${spamd_pidfile}"}
