Using the -u option and database size

So far I used the -u option with bogofilter. Meanwhile my wordlist.db has
grow up to about 200 MB and I'm wondering, whether it puts much load onto
the server to match each mail against such a big database.

I think the size is mainly due to the automatic registering with the -u
option.

So what do you think? Is it better not to use the -u option to keep the
database small? Or so you think a 200MB database is not a problem even on a
production mailserver that is receiving thousands of (spam) email every day.
