    The 5.3GB is an old value in the documentation from the web site, I have to correct that, thanks. I got it down to 3.5GB. However, you are right, this is a huge number of SHA1s. I once had another tool, filedriller (https://github.com/steffenfritz/filedriller), that I presented at iPres and used a Redis db for that with less than 1GB. Redis handles that better than Bolt. On the other hand, NIST changed the NSRL format and range (in the sense of years and systems) of the RDS sets. So I think the overhead is not too big. We have over 62.500.000 hashes in it. I think that's ok :)
