(Not the person you're responding to, but) It says how close it is to compacting in bottom right, once it's getting close at least (30% left or something?)

Whenever I see that I think about whether I can find a good point to compact or clear. I also just try to clear whenever it makes sense to avoid getting there and try to give smaller tasks that can be cleared after they're done when possible.

Oh, I guess one thing I do is sometimes have it write a file with what was done, if I'm not actually sure if I want to clear or might want to come back to it. I also sometimes do this rather than compact during a large task - document status and clear.
