I had the same problem running on a Sun Fire X2200 - Solaris 10.
88.7 I have a load avg of around 0.70 with .90 this shot up to 6.0
Cpu usage also on 88.7 is around 20% during large amounts of email with
.90 this shot up to 90%.
I've gone back to 88.7 as I can't afford the performance hit.
I compared my conf files to 88.7 and they are pretty similar.

I'm seeing very similar load and crash issues on Solaris 8.  I'm about
to back it out.
