This morning at 2AM I got a mail saying the pad server was restarted. Since then I don't have access to older pads. The "dirty.db" file seems to still contain all the information but the server can't seem to access it. The database file is getting pretty big: 377M var/dirty.db, what do you think could cause this issue?
Is it a better idea to use a database server like mysql for a production pad installation? Is there a way to wipe pads that haven't been accessed for longer than a month or something like that...?
Thanks
