DROP TABLE "moz_favicon";
EDIT2: NB: droping the favicon table is not the clean way of doing that..
yes, I suggest TRUNCATE TABLE moz_favicon;.
and I do think the sql-files should be automatically cleaned from time to time. the average user won't do it (as with Thunderbird's "Compact Folders", it's not reasonable to occupy gigabytes for email zombies by default ... but that's another topic.)

close FF
place the bookmarks.html in your profile directory
delete or rename bookmarks_history.sqlite
start FF
done

Drop works too I tested. In fact table is recreated when Firefox start. About cleaning or not I agree those files need some cleanup from time to time. But if you read the devmo article I pointed to, you will see vacuum statement consume time and cpu in a non negligible way on huge files. So the question becomes do you want Firefox to hang sometimes like once a week?

I did not create any bug, #334010 was created by Brett W.Uruviel wrote:Regis don't you think that instead of a button to Vacuum the sqlite file a periodic clean-up would be better? This prevents UI clutter and if you do it, say, once every week on startup there wouldn't be a huge hit on performance either
About your proposal regarding a vacuum on every shutdown or a vacuum at a specified interval, I disagree. If you take a look at Vacuuming_and_zero-fill or launch my program 2 times one after the other, you will see it takes a certain amount of time to do the vacuum. So IMHO, the button or menuitem or whatever permit the user to vacuum at will is better. (Note: I think there is an auto-vacuum flag in sqlite)
Anyway, feel free to comment bug 334010 :)
ahh ya I assumed you created it...didn't read the reporter field.
Yeah it isn't faster. I wonder where would be a good place for the option.

sure, but I thought that's what you described as "not the clean way"
supergirl260 wrote:well best bet might be too do it in background when user is inactive for like a 2 or more minutes and do it once a week
but then it would have to be real inactivity, not just "not browsing".

After some weeks with non-cairo builds I tried a cairo hourly again yesterday. But like before it crashes like hell for me on the same pages where non-cairo had no problems in weeks with the same profile and extensions.
The crashes (TB19235642W, TB19222371X, TB19222165K) have a stack signature "fbBltOne b4ef707d" but I can't find any bug for it. But it's on the tinderbox topcrasher page http://talkback-public.mozilla.org/repo ... index.html currently rank 16.
Now I have to decide if I use cairo crashing builds or non-cairo with rendering issues http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=420714
Anyone else with those fbBltOne crashes?

Regis, Interesting since the talkback shows Windows as the OS, and build as Window
