It seems to me that a tool like this should have an option for setting a limit on the size of the definitions files, with the ideal implementation keeping track of the "best and worst" entries in each db, (possibly ranked by percentage of false-positives vs number of matches) and gradually refining them (e.g. every time it comes up with a new filter, check whether it's better than the worst filter, if so replace it). This would add a little overhead too, but nothing like matching every email against two 200MB dbs full of expressions.

It has occurred to me that this reply serves no purpose but to outline some imaginary feature that will likely never be implemented, but oh well...
