You need to expire old bayes tokens. The limit is set not as a size, but as a count of tokens. The default is 150,000 tokens iirc, but you can set it yourself by setting the bayes_expiry_max_db_size to whatever value you want. Pretty much any number you'd reasonably choose will put you less than 800mb. :) To make it expire, either set bayes_auto_expire to 1 and let it expire tokens automatically, or run sa-learn --force-expire and sa-learn --sync. -- Gus
