 * Is there an easy way to *instantly* clean up the Slimstats database. Mine is 
   growing huge. I’ve so far retained 120 days, but sized it down to 60 days now.
   Didn’t help much…

 * Yep, in the same page where you found that information, there’s a button to delete
   ALL the records 😉
 * A vote for Slimstat would be a nice way to say thank you!

 * Thanks for that… If I hit the magic button, will I ten lose all collated tracking
   information and end up with zero visitors etc for the history? I don’t want to
   lose the entire tracked history. Don’t mind losing the details, but want to keep
   the summarised information.

 * Would be able to elaborate on what the ‘summarized’ information would be? We 
   could work on a feature to make this available.

 * I can’t speak for any realwombats, but I am looking at database size issues too,
   and would love to just clean out certain info. In my case, I would probably clean
   out everything except visits, unique IPs and landing page/traffic source info.
 * Then again, maybe I will just go for the export add-on, and clean everything 
   out after that.

 * That’s exactly what I was going to recommend 😉
