SpamAssassin is a HUGE memory hog. You absolutely must ensure that your machine is not swapping any of the memory it is actively using, otherwise you will have severe performance problems. With only 64MB you can probably only manage two or perhaps three concurrent SpamAssassin processes, along with everything else. You will also need to check the concurrency settings of the AV scanners and Exim. You can't fit a name server on the same machine, which will hurt you. I guess you have a cheap virtual colo box. Perhaps you should get a more expensive one with a much larger memory partition.
