E.g. if I'm happy with the current 70G being used now but don't want to have to use more in the next N years, pruning now ensures I won't need more disk space for a considerable amount of time. However, if I need to free up some of that 70G now, the 3rd option works best for me. | |

| Jun 17, 2019 at 15:18 | comment | added | jtgrassie | As per the quote, the first 2 options wont free disk space, they just make space in the database available for future needs. You can still use the 3rd option on an already pruned database. That will then reduce the database size freeing up disk space. | |

| Jun 17, 2019 at 14:44 | comment | added | Patoshi パトシ♦ | So the best method is to just use the third option by running the command monero-blockchain-prune ? Then I can delete the lmdb file? and how do I make it use the pruned db file? | |
