I have a DNN database that is almost 3000MB (6GB total with logs). I've had databases this large before, but I'm not sure why. It could be the forums which get maybe 100 messages a day and I don't think Active Forums ever deletes old forums... we have it set-up to use filesystem for any binary data.

Take a look at the site log and run the query from this thread. It will tell you wich database is so big. I have ActiveForums also with almost 40,000 posts and the total size is less then 150 Mb.
