I'd do that.
I just tried to run the import and the process ran out of memory. I've got 1GB of physical RAM in that machine with 2GB of swap available and it still errored out with the following output: # sa-learn --dbpath /cyrus/amavis/.spamassassin/bayes --import upgrading to DB_File, please be patient: /cyrus/amavis/.spamassassin/old_bayes_seen DB_File: copied 702806 entries. upgrading to DB_File, please be patient: /cyrus/amavis/.spamassassin/old_bayes_toks DB_File: DB_File module not installed, nothing copied. GDBM_File: GDBM_File module not installed, nothing copied. Out of memory during request for 1012 bytes, total sbrk() is 1073326080 bytes! I ran the import as root with all of the ulimits set to unlimited. Is there any way to get the memory usage down so that I can complete the import? Can I somehow purge the less important data from the database? -- Ted Cabeen http://www.pobox.com/~secabeen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Check Website or Keyserver for PGP/GPG Key BA0349D2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I have taken all knowledge to be my province." -F.
