Cool. I think our main issues were: - speed (both reading and writing matter) - size limits on number of keys in DB and key/value sizes Some other DB formats had trouble with nulls and other binary crap going into keys/values and would get corrupted. There were also some issues with switching between formats and different formats using the same file extensions. You might also want to look at the note about SDBM here: http://qdbm.sourceforge.net/benchmark.pdf Also read the AnyDBM_File documentation about SDBM. Finally, Perl 5.4? You mean perl 5.004? Perl 5.6 or later is required for SpamAssassin 3.0.0. Daniel -- Daniel Quinlan http://www.pathname.com/~quinlan/
