Extend Safari's History to a full year

The longer the history, the longer it takes Safari to start up.

Extend Safari's History to a full year
Authored by: stevec on Mar 21, '05 11:30:41AM
curiously enough my .plist file did not have this key in it WebKitHistoryAgeInDaysLimit So I added it. So far no issues but only time will tell. I didn't set my age that high, 60 days and 1500 items is sufficient for me

It's not there unless you add it. See /System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/Headers/WebHistoryItem.h file (Tiger—I don't run Panther anymore, so I don't know if it's applicable there). It discusses a "HistoryAgeInDaysLimit which one can use to set the maximum number of days to be read from stored history."

Thus,

defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitHistoryAgeInDaysLimit 30

adds it to the plist.
