If you have the extra physical space, have you considered running the new 
server as a dedicated spamassassin server?  Ideally, you would probably want 
the faster and larger drive handling the mail storage, but if downtime is 
really a problem, offloading the process causing the most load might give you 
the time to design and implement a more elegant solution.
