## Vacuum the database
### Analyze
Running an `analyze` vacuum job can improve performance by updating statistics used by the query planner. **It is safe to cancel this.**
```sh tab="OTP"
./bin/pleroma_ctl database vacuum analyze
```
```sh tab="From Source"
mix pleroma.database vacuum analyze
```
### Full
Running a `full` vacuum job rebuilds your entire database by reading all of the data and rewriting it into smaller
and more compact files with an optimized layout. This process will take a long time and use additional disk space as
it builds the files side-by-side the existing database files. It can make your database faster and use less disk space,
but should only be run if necessary. **It is safe to cancel this.**
```sh tab="OTP"
./bin/pleroma_ctl database vacuum full
```
```sh tab="From Source"
mix pleroma.database vacuum full
