I was doing some tests, while doing so I needed to enter some
100.000.000 records in a table. That took almost one GB of disk space,
df -kh shows I have some 130 MB of free disk space.

I did dropdb on that test database, but empty space still shows 130 MB.
How can I reclaim (reget?) space used by test database?
