Sorry, but I didn't have more information on the problem.
The logs never showed something out of ordinary.

I changed the $max_servers settings to 5  and the max_requests to 20 
though (and turned the loglevel to "debug" - logging in an seperate file ).
Amavis runs smoothly now.

Since the performance is still quite okay - i will leave the loglevel at 
debug for another week or so.

Anyway - thanks for the reply.

Cheers,
