Anyone ever encountered system issues (major slowdowns and hangs of other apps) when their history1.db grows to a large size - I'm currently at 3MB after a few days and have seen it over 100 . The only fix I've found is to delete the file all together. It seems like the bigger it gets the more i/o is consumed to the point nothing else can run. It is often months between incidents so I often forget that's the easy fix and try everything else first. Is there a way to keep this file pruned to a specific size, count or date? I've considered deleting it with a script every so many days, but that doesn't seem ideal.
Thanks!
