<command>TRUNCATE</command> quickly removes all rows from a table.
<command>TRUNCATE</command> quickly removes all rows from a
table. It has the same effect as an unqualified
<command>DELETE</command> but since it does not actually scan the
table it is faster. This is most effective on large tables.
