			Turn off avatars, attachments, limit post sizes, prune old posts, remove hacks that add bulk to the database, turn off searching. Should make database size plummet.

			thanks filburt1 I will try that.  I know people will not like to loos the avatar so I think I have to leave that alone.  I jsut noticed i had over 400,000 posts in a usenet group.  Hopefully pruning that will help!

			First, prune old messages, then reindex the search index if you don't want to turn it off completely.   The search index is usually a big chunk of the database.

			Make sure you regularly optimize the attachments table, through phpmyadmin, as I once found when my attachment table was reading 50+ megs, that once I optimized it, it had gone down to under 5mb. Use repair.php   |
