Just to add to this. I was digging around for a solution because there were other weird things going on such as over 200,000 sql files in the cache folder, which was caused by the phpbb_sessions table having over a million records! (which is unusual for a forum with only a few hundred users). It was clear that by not running the cron tasks for over a year the sessions table was not being cleaned up.
