I had thousands of rows in it. I did a test with the database and everything was good. So before I ship it to production, I went to the database and I did drop all the index and 'deleted' all the rows from the table. I thought the size of the database will come down so that I can ship the model database for production. But the size didn't change. How can I reduce the size or is it possible at all? Thanks.
