My data base is currently at 447 mb for 4808 books with 900x1600 cover images on average for my collection. I prefer the higher resolution although I think a lower resolution cover would work as well. And compressing the data base did only save a few mbs as well for me


I think a lot of the data base size is due to the size of the covers, and my collection is strictly ebook no pdf etc., not sure if that makes a difference.
