Hi, I am pleased to announce the current development version Harvest-1.7.5. What's new: - Disabled gdbm bug workarounds in gatherer. Earlier versions of gdbm didn't reclaim deleted space in gdbm database files and wasted space within the file. To prevent the database file keep growing caused by the wasted space, the gatherer frequently called gdbm_reorganize() which could take some time. - Added support for bzip2 compressed files and bzip2 compressed tar archives. Please, test this version and let me know if the gdbm database file still wastes space.
