    Hello,

    What kind of DB are you using? Embedded or SQL Server?

    If SQL Server DB, please browse it in SQL Management Studio it to verify which tables are keeping more space and the tune more specific log retention settings.

    The definitions are also using a lot of space, how many releases do you keep in your SEPM?
