I think you may be right, as it seems to be fine now? I even put my spamdyke timeout back to 5 second delay.
Are there any parameters that I can adjust to help with this type of issue? There were no cpu/memory constraints?

(Is that a technical term?) Can you turn on spamdyke detailed logging and see what the last message before the delay is?
