I was wondering why my OF database is 10.5 MB in size whereas the backup is only 16 KB? Currently for a daily backup of my OF data I copy the database to a USB drive. The size of the database seems a little large for my data whereas the size of the backup file seems more in line with a realistic size for my data.

Which leads to my next question, what is the advantage of copying my OF database file to my USB drive as a backup versus copying the last backup of my OF data which is created every time I quit the program?
