| Description |
|
We intend to remove a large number of unwanted objects from numerous collections spanning a number of different databases hosted on one server. If we do this, is there a possibility that the storage space used will increase? |

Removing documents will not increase the size storage, no. After you have removed everything you may want to run repair if you desire to reduce the number of database files on disk. |
