The preferrable variant is to restore the most recent database backup that could be compacted. If you don't have one, I'd recommend you to create a new profile & export the old one completely into it using service mode. To do that specify Import as the service plugin in the profile creation dialog:

Its helped, but archive still too big.
I removed from history all except last year but archive still 15MB


Now deleted almost all messages & still 12MB

zlotowinfo,
There's such thing like granularity, i.e. the amount of disk allocated for each table in a profile. Right now it's set to 2MB, so if there's one record, you get a profile of 2MB length. More records in another tables - more slices 2MB each.

I think you trying to tell me about constants size of each record in database.

Is there posibility to clean up contacts without messages?

zlotowinfo,
no, that's not about record size, that's a space segment aka slice which is filled further with pages of data or indexes.
there're six segments in each profile
