marklcfc Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 (edited) I just recently changed the archiving to more than 5 years to more than 6 years (don't ask) and I've noticed the size of the database has grown. This was before and now after The posts table has increased from 2.6 to 3.3 gb as I expected given a years more posts are now accessible but archive posts has increased from 3.7gb to 4.4gb even though it should have a years less posts in there now. Has something gone wrong? Edited December 8, 2023 by marklcfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the rows had increased (and therefore what data we had in there) then of course that would be us, but the size its using on disk would be your host Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
