Unless you've got something that times out and winds up killing it mid-expire.. in which case you'll end up retrying that expire indefinitely. Also, if you do turn it off, you *MUST* run sa-learn --force-expire on a regular basis, preferably via a cronjob. If you've got a per-user bayes config, you *MUST* run this as every user. Otherwise your bayes DB's will grow without bound.
