I was just thinking about how small mailing list emails are compared to how huge harddisks are these days. My first harddisk was 40 MB, my laptop today has 1.5 TB of SSD. That's more than 39000x larger. I definitely haven't been writing/receiving 39000x more emails. I have 396K emails in ~/Mail currently - they take up 11 GB, that's ~a 140th of the available space. In Feedbase I have 3.3 million articles currently, the PostgreSQL table takes up around 5.4 GB on disk. So I wasn't thinking of any specific strategy, storage spaces has just grown much faster than email size. PostgreSQL (unsurprisingly) is more efficient than a-file-per-article by quite a bit, though :-) Best regards, Adam -- "Wandering stars Adam Sjøgren For whom it is reserved asjo@koldfront.dk The blackness of darkness, forever"
