I have just begun working with ingres and notice that an empty
database (testdb) starts at 787 kilobytes.  The iidbdb with only 
testdb and 6 users on the system takes up 1021 kb.  Is there a
way to cause Ingres to allocate less space for a database?  
Or, if we will have only one user,  can we make the log file < 4096?
We need disk space.  Any ideas for freeing up space appreciated.
