You could do it in the same repository.
To replace the root of a repository:
mySession commit: [ mySession root: newRootObject ]
MagmaWarning will be produced when you do this.
Then the next time you compress that repository, the big file
associated with the old PreallocatedDictionary will not be part of the
compressed output, as long as it is no longer referenced.
