Thanks Laurence, that is helpful, for now it's given an insight into how the volume is spread over my top-level folders (I guess I got spoilt with TreeSize from www.jam-software.com, when checking sizes of Windows drives and folders) I've also discovered that I can postpone the MLO reminder about numbers of tasks, so now I don't feel like I'm in danger any more

I preserve outline branches by making the root of the branch a project. If the appropriate parameter is set, it will not archive "open projects". I'm not exactly sure what Open Project means, maybe someone can clarify. In the Windows version of MLO, you can zoom in on a branch, do Select All in Outline View, and a count is shown of the number of tasks. I am still adding more tasks than I am archiving...
