mysql - SQL database export different size -


i have sql database reported being 40mb in size when in cpanel. if try , export database using phpmyadmin, export file 900kb in size.

the strange thing is, if import file clean database appear there.

anyone ideas causing size issue? maybe being incorrectly reported?

the 2 answers prior mine pretty good, have bit add. depending how cpanel computing space, there's simple explanation. basically, table types don't reclaim disk space after delete records. if, @ 1 time, stored 40mb worth of data, dropped lot of it, that's reasonable cause see reported database still takes 40mb of space on disk.
