we are still on 2.4.x, but we had a similar problem that we resolved this 
way:

  imap          cmd="imapd -U 10" listen="imap.uni-koeln.de:imap"  ...

The "-U 10" means every process is only re-used up to 10 times instead of 
the default of 250. This change caused the number of processes to drop 
quite a bit.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
