In other words, just having 5 processes at full load really doesn't mean
much.

FWIW, I've added this to local.cf <http://local.cf>, recompiled, and
    restarted spamd but
    am still seeing CPUs hanging at 100%.

I am using MailScanner which launches spamassassin on batches of emails
and the past couple of weeks I have been getting SA timeouts and being
killed by MailScanner. I have never found a way to troubleshoot this as
I can't reproduce it consistently.  I am using KAM.cf which has the:

meta __STYLE_GIBBERISH_1  0

line but does that need to be:

score __STYLE_GIBBERISH_1  0

to completely disable it?

No. The 'meta' line overrides the 'rawbody' line in the default ruleset so you don't need anything else.
