I'm just getting started with Mt Gox and placed a couple of tiny orders, at 8.7 and 8.8€. I noticed that the "last price" (I assume this is the price at which the latest transaction took place?) displayed at the top of every MtGox page and which seems to be updated in real time has since then been fluctuating between ~8.67 and ~8.8.
Hence my questions:
- if this price isn't BS, why have my orders (or at least the highest one) not been executed?
- if the price is BS, where can I find the real transaction history? In the stock market I can see all past orders and pending orders, at BTC-E I can see all pending orders, in MtGox I just can't seem to find that information.

Hi,

I recently noticed that the log files contained in the database (%appdata%/Bitcoin/database) folder don't seem to get purged properly. The only things I found about this is https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Data_directory#Subdirectories and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=20298.0 . The strange thing is that I'm regularly switching between 2 wallets, every time switching the whole content of %appdata%/Bitcoin, and both don't have the same amount of files in %appdata%/Bitcoin/database. Is there any way to purge that folder? I mean, apart from wiping everything but the wallet? Not that that database folder is huge (yet), but I'm worrying about it growing indefinitely...

Thanks
