You obviously have something wrong with your setup, if amavisd leaves all
the tempfiles on disk. See if there are "preserving evidence" messages in
your log.

Anyway, forget that silly script. There's absolutely no need to restart
amavisd. Just cron a find command, like one that was posted here already.
