InstantDB: Table with binary objects keep growing and growing


Hi,

I have three tables holding serialized objects. Every time
I store a new version of an object, the new content gets
appended to the .blb file while the new version stays forever.

So for example: storing 10 objects of size 16KB, 400 times
creates a blob file that is 66MB large! The optimal value
would be near 160KB.

This seems related to a problem posted last month:
http://instantdb.enhydra.org/project/mailingLists/instantdb/msg01167.html

Instead of doing an UPDATE, I tried first removing the tuple
and then to do a fresh INSERT. Same result. 
Am I missing something here? 

I would appreciate your dilligent help on this subject.

Regards
--Pitch.
