@ladyoflorien - you wrote in your opening post that there were some 'insanely large comments' that you edited/removed - what was the nature of the 'insanity'?

I'm wondering if it might have been uuencoded data. I recall some discussion about replacing url links in Comments (e.g. to http://someplace.com/some_image.jpg) with the uuencoded binary data. I don't use the CleaningComments plugin, but if such a thing were to be done, then that plugin might provide a good place to do it.

@theducks and @betterred - The insanity was a lot of (thousands of) backslashes (\\\\\\\) in the comments field, at least for the comments fields I was able to edit.
