A cursory look into http://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_auto_vacuum puzzles me: " Auto-vacuuming is only possible if the database stores some additional information that allows each database page to be traced backwards to its referrer. Therefore, auto-vacuuming must be turned on before any tables are created. It is not possible to enable or disable auto-vacuum after a table has been created." Does VACUUM command also rebuild a database or it should be done separately? --Leo-- _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
