Hi Tony
One quick win is to prevent bloat by reducing your config's history stack with PERCH_UNDO_BUFFER. I usually set mine to 3 in production and 1 locally. I think its default might be 30 which is a tad excessive!
You can also stop content indexing using the no-index attribute. NB This will also remove the item from search.
