In brief: convert all your tables to myisam, delete ibdatafile during a restart, convert tables back to compressed innodb. My first thought is mentioned, but "will be adressed in next post": you lose your relations. I gotta run now, but I wonder what other incompatibilities between the engines one might run into. For simple databases this would probably work, though. -- Bier met grenadyn Is als mosterd by den wyn Sy die't drinkt, is eene kwezel Hy die't drinkt, is ras een ezel -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
