 Also referred to as ‘db auto trimming’ is an automatic feature that trims the size of your node’s database (db) to prevent it from growing too large unnecessarily. Average size is between 20-30gb. This is set to randomly occur between every 3-14 day period, and is reset if your node is restarted for whatever reason. Information on how to manually trim your db can be found in the [[Qortal Core]] page if desired.  Also referred to as ‘db auto trimming’ is an automatic feature that trims the size of your node’s database (db) to prevent it from growing too large unnecessarily.
