22MB is pretty big. Maybe it's a problem that only occur with very
large NOV files? There were some 9000-odd cached articles in that
directory after the expiry, and that's more than a week's worth, even
on no.alt.motorsykler.
Maybe agent expiry has a problem with too many articles/too large a
NOV file?

Hm... wonder why the regenerated NOV file was so small? Did it only
contain the new articles?
