[ZODB-Dev] What makes up a transactions size?

Hi there,

I've got a ZODB that keeps ballooning up and hitting the 2GB limit. When packed it drops
back down to about 50Mb.

Any idea how I can find up what's taking up all the space? I suspect it might be
transactions that are being aborted (I seem to remember a bug whereby aborted transactiosn
were still appended to the ZODB, which seems pretty apalling to me, but no-one else seemed
to be too bothered...)

In any case, can anyone help?

cheers,

Chris
