That's a different question. 'devendra' asked about placing the VPS folder  
elsewhere. The data shouldn't be obsolete, it is just about pages you  
visited a short while ago. You can limit the history length in  
Preferences. You can also directly limit the size of the VPS folder by  
editing this:
opera:config#UserPrefs|MaxVisitedPagesIndexSize

I just delete the vps directory tree everytime I boot my PC.  I got tired
of waiting many seconds while hundreds of megabytes of data were searched
for no benefit.
