[sqlite] Can I check the auto-vacuum setting on an SQLite database?
My deepest apologies for forgetting to change the subject line in my last post, and thus accidentally hijacking a thread. Here is the message again, this time with the correct subject.

I am hoping that auto-vacuum will replace the need for periodic VACUUM calls. If the files are getting too big, I need to be able to verify the auto-vacuum setting before trying to come with some other scheme to prevent unbridled file growth. Thank you very much!

PRAGMA auto_vacuum; http://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_auto_vacuum Note that auto-vacuum will often make fragmentation issues worse. Even with auto-vacuum in place, it is best to run a full manual vacuum from time to time, especially for highly dynamic databases. -j -- Jay A.
