No, only Linux has the three processes. They're due to how
LinuxThreads emulates threads with processes and a lightweight fork()
function called clone(). On other systems you'll either see 1 process
if it's working, or zero if it's not :)
Lots of spam could be due to a lot of things. Check your headers to
see if you have an X-Spam-Status: header. If not, then check
/var/log/maillog for milter timeout messages. If you do see a header,
then spamassassin and the milter ran but decided the messages wan't
spam. You can either raise your sensitivity, enable Bayesean
filtering, or try installing some 3rd-party spamassassin rulesets to
detect spam styles invented after 2.63 was released.
