Database table not automatically cleaning

    Hi all,

    I have the impression cerber_files is not automatically cleaned up.
    There seem to be 4 identical hashes from different scans for each file.
    Unfortunately I’m reaching the DB limit of my shared hosting provider. This tables takes up about 20% of the database space.

    Is there any way to clean this up by hand or to trigger the database cleanup?
    WP-cron is running fine.

    Thanks in advance,

    Tim

    Hi! There is no error. The table keeps up to 4 snapshots of your file system. It is by design. In one of the future releases, we reduce the size by 50%. You can clean it up from a DB management tool only offered by your hosting provider. It’s safe. What’s your DB limit?

    Hi @gioni ,

    Thanks for the clarification!
    DB limit is 250MB, so approx 50MB for this table.
    I’ve done a couple of extra runs and growth seems indeed to flatten out (but not completely stop).

    Just to be double sure, so if necessary I can delete any scan snapshot or even purge the table contents in the database?
    That would indeed solve my concerns.

    Kind regards,

    Tim
