+# Get largest rooms by size in database
+
+Returns the 10 largest rooms and an estimate of how much space in the database
+they are taking.
+
+This does not include the size of any associated media associated with the room.
+
+Returns an error on SQLite.
+
+*Note:* This uses the planner statistics from PostgreSQL to do the estimates,
+which means that the returned information can vary widely from reality. However,
+it should be enough to get a rough idea of where database disk space is going.
+
+
+The API is:
+
+```
+GET /_synapse/admin/v1/statistics/statistics/database/rooms
+```
+
+A response body like the following is returned:
+
+```json
+{
+  "rooms": [
+    {
+      "room_id": "!OGEhHVWSdvArJzumhm:matrix.org",
+      "estimated_size": 47325417353
+    }
+  ],
+}
+```

+
+**Response**

+  - `estimated_size` - integer - Estimated disk space used in bytes by the room
+    in the database.
