Data usage control (old images, etc)

Hi,

Maybe you can share your practice on the ways how to keep control of your data share? Maybe you monitor and manualy delete not used any more images? Or have a tool to do that? How often you maintain your databases, etc? Our site is now of 16gb in size and the data grows ~200Mb/day (we`ve launched the multiseller module) what means that saving/expenditures on the data will be more and more visible at our budget :)

Also what do you think about clearing the cashed images? Maybe for the deleted/old products it would be a small save?:)

Well I found some extensions, how ever from what I see the logic behind is to check if links of images at the database still have any references in products, etc. Just wondering where are the images saved
