i wonder how much memory is taken up by spam and shitty posts...

Around 980 megs....

Search indicies alone are about 280 megs

Attachments that are still in the database and were never pulled out are about 185 megs of that total.

.....Attachments would be bigger but ages ago I used a forum mod to pull out attachments and save them as external files - so there are about 280 megs worth of MP3s (934 of them re-encoded @ 24kbps for streaming on unknowntracks.com)
