 * Hey,
 * i am using newspack-theme with amp first and have a problem. for each new post,
   there is a new meta key “_amp_stylesheets” with the full css inside, with more
   than 250k characters for each blogpost. my database is nearly “exploding”, increasing
   really fast. is it possible to stop this?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fdatabase-increasing-fast-because-full-css-for-each-post%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * I think the previous related topic to this may actually be: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/big-increase-in-postmeta-size/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/big-increase-in-postmeta-size/)
 * We have filed an issue to address this in the plugin: [https://github.com/ampproject/amp-wp/issues/4779](https://github.com/ampproject/amp-wp/issues/4779)
 * The quick fix is you can just go in to the Validated URLs screen, select all 
   of the posts, and click “Forget” from the bulk actions. Or rather you can do 
   this in WP-CLI via `wp amp validation reset`.

 * okay, “forget” from the bulk actions helps temporarily to clean up my database.
   now i am waiting for a permanent solution. Thanks
