I think the only solution is send all bitcoin from current address to another address,
and then create new fresh wallet, after that, you send back bitcoin to your fresh address.
This is the only solution at this time Smiley

Hey everyone. So I run a bitcoin service, and currently it sends out small portions of BTC to several dozen addresses at a time, and it does this about once every half hour to an hour (note: im changing it very shortly here so there is far less inputs per transaction, and much more (55 uBTC at least) sent per output.

Now, the problem Iv noticed is that every so often (month or two), my bitcoind server starts becoming extremely finicky. Crashing constantly, or being very very slow whenever a transaction with alot of outputs is created. The only solution iv been able to get to work is moving all my BTC out of the wallet, deleteing the wallet and then creating a new one. And in 2 previous cases, I was unable to get bitcoind to start back up at all, and the only way I could get it to work was actually deleting the whole block chain and basically starting over completley fresh.

Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Its almost like the wallet data just gets too bloated and causes too much RAM usage or something, causing Bitcoind to crash.

Also, its running off a VPS with 1.5 GB ram and using ubuntu as the OS.
