As it turns out, the system rebuilds the database at 00:15, 5:15am, AND 8:15pm. So now we know where the load is coming from. There were outages at midnight and 5am consistently too, I just wasn't getting text alerts overnight for outages < 15 minutes. So, new question: Any idea what could be causing the rebuild to kill the server while it processes, and why does my rebuilt seem to take about 40 minutes each time. I keep 15,000 files, subject logging on. No databases in use. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Is there a reason why you keep (UseSubjectsAsMaillogNames) enabled? Now that you've got 15k messages, there really is no need to have that enabled. Your exceeding NotSpam count is probably what is causing your rebuild to take so long. ASSP still looks through all those extra messages during the rebuild before it deletes the overage. If you disable (UseSubjectsAsMaillogNames), ASSP will maintain a consistent 15K (or thereabouts) thereby reducing the amount of time it takes for the rebuild. I can't say why your ASSP is non-responsive though. Mine's always responsive during a rebuild. My limit is set to 14,500 and the rebuild takes about 13-14 minutes. For whatever reason, I have a hard time keeping max files in my spam dir. I assume it's because they're deleted because of false positives. My server runs Win32 with a 3.4GHz Xeon Proc with 3.5GB of RAM.
