A lot of that is shared, but not reported as such by top/ps due to
changes in how the kernel reports shared memory. The kernel only
reports memory that is used in shared libraries, I believe. More
memory is shared between spamd and it's children.
Other than that I don't know what to say. It doesn't seem like it
should take up that much memory...
FWIW, I can't really reproduce that.
