Hello list

I am using amavisd-new ( amavisd-new-2.6.4 (20090625) ) with postfix (
latest ) over FreeBSD 8.0
Also Bind DNS and Squid.
The hardware is pretty new, 2 Gb RAM, Quad Core.
When the system is less loaded, about 10 msg/minute, no problem like
secondary MX.
But as soon as getting heavy loaded, say 100/150 msg/minute - moving it
to 1st MX- it sometimes freezes, and after a few minutes come back
alone, and some ohter times, needs a reset.
Tried to shut down Squid and Bind, no help.
CPU is no more than 30%  ( usually 75% Idle ):

I used amavisd-nanny, and got this:

At the freeze time, the login prompt is fast as usual, but the prompt
for password takes more than 2 minutes, if cames!

The logs shows nothing but this:

Still now, when I commented the line in Postifx to call the amavisd, the
process 29026 is hang around ( as others )

Can someone point me a solution??
