 * Hi there,
 * the Field “wp-posts” in my sql database seems to be a little too big, its at 
   almost 12MB.
    My questions are:
 * Is there any Way to shrink it down?
    What could have caused this (and i´m sure
   its my fault)?
 * thanks in advance,
 * andre

 * Ok, sorry, i solved the SQL problem.
 * i used tip No. 2 from this post:
 * [http://wp.smashingmagazine.com/2008/12/18/8-useful-wordpress-sql-hacks/](http://wp.smashingmagazine.com/2008/12/18/8-useful-wordpress-sql-hacks/)
 * But, naturally, i´ve encountered another problem. After i´ve displayed the Number
   of SQL Queries on the blog, the result is:
 * 109 queries in 4,341 seconds.
 * are there too many queries? The blog still runs slow, although the Database seems
   fixed.
