How does it determine that, by MD5 or similar? Is only the checksum
stored in the db or the whole body?


MD5, Only the checksum.

      I noticed that you in the change log say under Fixes:
      "Improved reliability of Bayes rebuilds a lot". Do you now
      use SQLite for Bayes too? Theoretically that should be
      possible since SA does support it. Is the fix something
      totally different?


Totally different. It's a very small change so that children doing the
Bayes rebuild die immediately after completing it, they don't continue to
live after that. It's solving problems like this, that I did the "worker
children" architecture in the first place :-)
