Hi, I am writing because i wonder what it really means. I know taht after vacuuming HEM should work faster but does it involve deleting some hands from my database or?

it is like getting your car engine serviced. It doesn't delete hands, (thats purging).

In what way does it free up disk space then?

I think it frees up space by removing empty space, a bit like defagging a hd I guess. How much info do you want?, this looks pretty detailed and no doubt way over my head, but be my guest ;)
