[p4] HELP!!!

[Venters, Cheryl]

We've been having terrible trouble with performance lately and one of
the things Perforce asked us to do is move our db files to the local
drive as opposed to the san. So, when I did that tonight, I checkpointed
my original server and then restored the checkpoint in the new location.
I did a comparison of the two directories and noticed that many of the
db files are about half the size of what they were prior to the restore.
Is this expected behavior? One thing that sent me into a minor panic was
that I restored the checkpoint without a corresponding journal file but
that should be okay since I just checkpointed and there would have been
no activity between the checkpoint and the restore, right?

 

Thanks.
