I'd say if you don't need to store anything then get rid of the database as
soon as you know it's not being used and then create it when you need to
again... I take it as you're using it for fiddling with large data that
doesn't fit into dynamic heap?.. I have something similar, where I use
storage heap to load a list dynamically quite a neat trick but you have to
be very carefull when you delete and create the databases.
