I'm baffled..... MySQL related to this board (pliknon?.. or someone?)

[Bluevoodu]

I am not sure what happened.

I know this sounds crazy and all... but the last MySQL backup that I did for this message board was 3.50- to 4 meg large.

today..... I go to back up the site.... and its only 516 Kb. WTH is up with that?

Please tell me... does anyone see anything missing?

I cannot figure out what made our database 3-3.5 meg smaller.

Eh.. I have no clue. Could it have been the way the tables were set up? That can effect it sometimes, I think.

I did do a table "optimize all tables to improve performance"

but come on... shedding 3 meg out of 3.5 total megs? :lol

thats nutz :

all these fancy buttons and doo-dads....back in my day we had to walk 10 miles in the snow to go buy a floppy disk from the corner store :

You sure it wasn't 15 miles?

and yep, that probably would be the reason, it can make a big diffenrece

wonder why it didn't make that big of a difference last time I did it at 2 megs?
