hello

Currently I have this database DB1 6GB of size.

Every Saturday night I have a full backup (.bak file)- and my backup size is 5GB
Every 4 hours (4am, 8am, 12 nn, 4pm) - everyday - I run transactional backup (.trn file)
From Sunday to Thursday - each trn files are very small( 2MB is the max size.

Come friday morning(4am .trn file) - grows so big - 5gb .trn file. same size as my full backup. but the rest of the friday .trn file is small.

My question is how will I investigate this one - why it is happening .. and how can I make all my .trn file small.

Please advice.

Jeboy
