NAME
slowedit garbage - Garbage collect the databases
SYNOPSIS
slowlist switches garbage
DESCRIPTION
slowedit garbage cleans unreferenced items from the database.
It runs in two passes.
- Scans the IP database for records that do not exist
in the events database.
- Scans the events database for IP numbers that do
not exist in the IP database.
Garbage collection is best done if the slowmilt milter
is not running. A warning is printed when you run garbage collection,
notifying you of this risk, giving you an opportunity to abort.
Garbage collection is verbose, printing and logging (if logging is enabled)
everything it does. Garbage collection takes about 1 second per
10,000 records if there is nothing to do.
