Hello all, We are going to be using MonetDB as a data mart between our data warehouse and our front-end applications and are planning to insert and delete several millions of rows from MonetDB every night as part of our data update cycle. We've noticed that MonetDB doesn't support the TRUNCATE statement so we're deleting all the data with DELETE FROM table. But is this the best way to delete millions of rows every night? Won't performance or free disk space degrade over time? Best regards, Dennis Pallett
