Re: Compact VDI file on OSX
Search forum for "CloneVDI". On Linux it runs with WINE, i think for MacOS you must use DarWINE.
This is the best solution.
Another solution is reading the manual. Topics: VBoxManage, compact, sdelete.

on OS X WineBottler http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ works extremely well
