Your server and site should be able to take spam but if you are talking about a ddos attack that is something entirely different.
Check your server security logs and ban those ips attacking your ftp and ssh ports.. better still change to a different port and allow only your own ip access. I would need to know more to better aid you but as dave said, a plug in is not going to decrease resource usage from spam.
You may able to add something to your htaccess that would help though but again, need more detail.
