If you count both dbs together 1 GB might be what you end up with this volume 
and no expiry. What's your "salearn --dump magic" output? That will show you 
some statistics about your db. As an example, this is a dump of a 42 MB dbm 
database. I let it expire with a threshold of 1.5 Mio. tokens or so.

0.000          0      47588          0  non-token data: nspam
0.000          0      87524          0  non-token data: nham
0.000          0    1231268          0  non-token data: ntokens


 With such a large db you may be better off in terms of performance by using a 
sqlized one. But expect it to take even more space. With the volume of mail you 
get I'd expire everything older than a month.
