I, like others, have had the issue of rapidly growing database with two macs and an iPhone. This week was different and I'm not sure why.
I was traveling so I had my iPhone and laptop with me. My desktop was at home not running OF. When I arrived home, I setup my laptop and ran OF, then started my desktop ran OF and left OF as the front application on my iPhone and set it in the charger. All three ran all night long.
When I checked OF this morning I wanted to see how many "extra" clients I had picked up. My answer was surprising... none, just the three as it should be. So I checked the size of the file on my mobileme account and it was only about six or seven files.
The only things I can think of that are different: This week I used the iPhone OF less often, maybe not at all. I don't remember. I did view stuff on it but I am not sure if I added anything. If I did it was sparse. Also I did allow any of the sneaky peaks to update. I was on limited bandwidth all week and when I did have good bandwidth I was too busy with other work. That said, on my laptop I did use OF heavily rearranging things, this is normal for me.
The other unique thing that may or may not be relevant. Is that because of my constrained bandwidth the OF sync process failed a couple times on my laptop and the icon changed to the !. In fact one time I had to force quite the application because I did not have time to let it finish syncing, as I was dashing for the plane. The only reason I bring this up is in case there is some special error checking code that might get triggered and that some how that reset things on the mobileme side.
Obviously this is not a complaint but wanted to give feedback in case it might help Omni or someone.
