Do this once in a while (monthly, at least, if not weekly) to keep your db lean. > Keep in mind that after you've "compressed" your db by doing this, it'll grow VERY quickly (and run more slowly) for a while as it splits lots of pages to make room for new rows. Jeff Anton did a talk on this at the last (ever?) user conference: https://www.slideshare.net/perforce/perforce-btrees-the-arcane-and-the-profane IIRC he recommended doing rebuilds with freepct=10 so you have a little bit of free space for new insertions. -- Please click here to see the post in its original format: http://forums.perforce.com/index.php?/topic/5599-out-of-space-how-to-delete-files-or-previous-check-in _______________________________________________ perforce-user mailing list - [email protected] http://maillist.perforce.com/mailman/listinfo/perforce-user
