My MT blog database has gotten too big for mother to run the MT-blacklist.cgi despam script on 25 entries before timeout. It wouldn’t even do 10. Now I have to do 5 entries at a time, and it’s getting tedious.
Damn You Blog Spammers!

How many did you get? The latest spam comments should be the latest ones and just a simple de-spam should pick them all up in a single run without the need to scan through the rest of the comments.

There were more than 30 blog spam entries from the same spammer.
The problem was it took a relatively long time to delete the spam AND rebuild the relevant entries, it timed out before the job was finished. PITA.
