# Pack workspace (optimize)

Use Pack workspace optimize in Remote Desktop Manager to analyze, compress, and resave entries, reducing database size and improving performance.

When holding a great number of entries in your workspace it is a best practice to compress them to avoid slowness issues when using your workspace. The ***Workspace (optimize)*** will analyze all your entries, compress them and then re-saves them, thus saving space in your workspace.

{% hint style="info" %}
This feature requires an ***SQL workspace***.
{% endhint %}

### Settings

1. Open the workspace you wish to optimize.
2. In the ribbon of Remote Desktop Manager, go to ***Administration***, and select ***Pack workspace (optimize)***.
3. Click ***Analyze***.
4. Once the Analyze is completed click on ***Optimize*** to proceed with the optimization of your workspace. You can select which ***vault*** you wish to ***Analyze*** and ***Optimize***, or use the ***Optimize all*** feature to perform the action on all available vaults.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/administration/pack-workspace-optimize.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
