Henrik Hofmeister updated COUCHDB-1243:
---------------------------------------
Attachment: dump_load.php
dump load script - requires php and curl installed.
takes 2 arguments - the host (including http and port and trailing /) - and the
source db name
> Compact and copy feature that resets changes
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-1243
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1243
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Database Core
> Affects Versions: 1.0.1, 1.1
> Environment: Ubuntu, but not important
> Reporter: Henrik Hofmeister
> Labels: cleanup, compaction
> Attachments: dump_load.php
>
>
> After running db and view compaction on a 7K doc db with 6+ mio. changes - it
> takes up 0.8 GB. If copying the same documents to a new db (get and bulk
> insert) - the same date with 7K changes takes up 40 mb. That is a huge
> difference. Has been verified on 2 db's that the difference is more than 65
> times the size of data.
> A "Compact and copy" feature that copies only documents, and resets the
> changes for at db would be very nice to try and limit the disk usage a little
> bit. (Our current test environment takes up nearly 100 GB... )
