Hello there,  
Fairly new mautic user here, I installed it in July, it works perfectly and a big thanks to all the developers.

I do have a problem though, because after juste some months, the database size is around 1.5GB.

I have about 10,000 subsribers, and I’m not sure how to reduce the size of this database which will become too big soon. The mautic webpage itself starts to slow down and often triggers a PHP out of memory error (fixed by increasing the memory\_limit to 1GB).

I’m using Mysql with the standard settings, I installed Mautic with the standard settings too.  
Any clue on how to reduce the database size? What table content can I SAFELY delete?  
Thank you very much.  
Mike.
