BIG PROBLEM: Need help with production box

Hello,

I need major assistance. We have a dual cpu w/ 2GB of RAM. Recently, lmtpd and imapd processes have been eating up all available memory to the point the machine stops responding. I have try to reconstruct every mailbox and fix the mailbox database, but nothing has fixed it. Some of the ctl_ commands fail too by eating up memory. None of the users have very large mailboxes either. Any help would be great. Thank you.

Setup:
6600 Accounts
Redhat 9.0
Cyrus IMAPD 2.1.16
Cyrus SASL 2.1.10
OpenLDAP 2.1.23
Sendmail

cyrus.conf:
# standard standalone server implementation

START {
  # do not delete this entry!
  recover cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -r"

  # this is only necessary if using idled for IMAP IDLE
# idled cmd="idled"
}

# UNIX sockets start with a slash and are put into /var/imap/sockets
SERVICES {
  # add or remove based on preferences
  imap cmd="imapd" listen="imap" prefork=5 maxchild=120
  imaps cmd="imapd -s" listen="imaps" prefork=1 maxchild=120
  pop3 cmd="pop3d" listen="pop3" prefork=3 maxchild=60
  pop3s cmd="pop3d -s" listen="pop3s" prefork=1 maxchild=60
  sieve cmd="timsieved" listen="sieve" prefork=0

  # at least one LMTP is required for delivery
# lmtp cmd="lmtpd" listen="lmtp" prefork=0
  lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/imap/config/socket/lmtp" prefork=5 maxchild=8

  # this is only necessary if using notifications
# notify cmd="notifyd" listen="/var/mail/imap/socket/notify" proto="udp" prefork=1
}

EVENTS {
  # this is required
  checkpoint cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -c" period=15

  # this is only necessary if using duplicate delivery suppression
  delprune cmd="ctl_deliver -E 3" at=0400

  # this is only necessary if caching TLS sessions
  tlsprune cmd="tls_prune" at=0400
}

imapd.conf:
configdirectory: /var/imap/config
servername: fit.edu
partition-default: /var/imap/data
admins: cyrusadm
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
tls_ca_file: <key>
tls_key_file: <key>
tls_cert_file: <key>
end of imapd.conf
