Pipermail is very inefficient and very memory hungry (I've had it run out or
Ram on a 512MB machine). The only real solution is to suffer through it, or
not to use it and use monharc instead.

Another alternative to the script that was given to you is:
chef:/var/local/mailman/bin# ./dumpdb ../lists/test/config.db
(...)
'user_options': { '[EMAIL PROTECTED]': 8,
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]': 8,
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]': 24,
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]': 8},
Each option is one bit.

That should actually be it. It will work until someone tries to switch the
archives to private and back to public, which will reset the symlink.
Of course, you have two symlinks: list and list.mbox
