+faq {
+ I deleted a lot of data but the database file did not get any
+ smaller. Is this a bug?
+} {
+ <p>No. When you delete information from an SQLite database, the
+ unused disk space is added to an internal "free-list" and is reused
+ the next time you insert data. The disk space is not lost. But
+ neither is it returned to the operating system.</p>
+
+ <p>If you delete a lot of data and want to shrink the database file,
+ run the VACUUM command (version 2.8.1 and later). VACUUM will reconstruct
+ the database from scratch. This will leave the database with an empty
+ free-list and a file that is minimal in size. Note, however, that the
+ VACUUM can take some time to run (around a half second per megabyte
+ on the Linux box where SQLite is developed) and it can use up to twice
+ as much temporary disk space as the original file while it is running.
+ </p>
+}
+
+faq {
+ Can I use SQLite in my commerical product without paying royalties?
+} {
+ <p>Yes. SQLite is in the public domain. No claim of ownership is made
+ to any part of the code. You can do anything you want with it.</p>
