That's the expected speed indeed.

Maybe. If you can capture the traffic between postfix and amavisd
on a loopback interface, then we may be able to better see what is
going on (e.g.: tcpdump -i lo0 -s 0 -w 0.log 'tcp port 10024' )

Right.

The client should re-try, but if the problem happens every time,
it is to no avail.
