Occasional Lock failures from spamd are normal, especially on busy servers..

Basically, autolearning, auto-expiry, etc are opportunistic processes, and if some other part of SA is currently using the bayes DB, it will fail to get a lock, and it will just skip the auto-learn and move on.

That's not so normal, but I don't have any advice for you on it.
