[ZODB-Dev] Is there any convenient way to reduce the storage file size after delete something in database?

[刘一新]

I found that the size of the storage file (test.fs for example) does not
change when I remove some or all object from it.
To empty test.fs, I recreate it.
But If I want to only remove some object in test.fs, I must do following:
   1. zeopack the database
   2. rm -f test.fs.old
Am I right?

BTW, what does the zeopack exactly do? And when should I use it? I try to
find some instructions on it but without success.

Thanks!
