At this point in the game, I don't think you need to use subject logging. It is really useful for initially training your database (which you should be done with), but after that, ASSP does a pretty good job of taking care of itself as long as you and your clients are reporting spam/notspam errors. That's my opinion/suggestion and I don't expect you to abide by it :-). I'll bet your time improves just from decreasing from 8000 to 4000, but it will be a gradual improvement as files are overwritten. It is actually suggested in the GUI that you lower it to 4K after you've reached the limit, "When both folders are close to the maxfiles limit, reduce it to 4000". I don't think you need to worry too much (proportionally) about decreasing it though. The HAM files will still be there, maybe not updated as often as the spam, but they'll still be there. Being that your HAM doesn't change much, your collection might eventually be a little HAM heavy, but that is easily remedied by deleting a few of your oldest files in the HAM directory. I also use Block Reporting. Presently, I just have it emailing me all of the spam from everyone's addresses for the last day to my account. So far, the only spam emails I've not been able to retrieve are ones that were blocked early. Occasionally they're not available some time after a restart of the ASSP process; which "I think" is because ASSP doesn't remember between stops/starts which ones it has recently overwritten (but again I may be wrong there). > The server seems to be unresponsive not as it goes through all of the > messages, but between "Resulting file" and "Bayesian Pairs" > calculation.

The only thing I can think of is perhaps your server is hitting some resource limits (IE. Too much disk IO, not enough RAM, etc.).
