Worried about jcr:versionStorage size

Avatar

Level 4

I launched the disk usage report overnight on the /jcr:system folder.  It ran until the connection was lost, something stood out to me.  The only folder it parsed (and didn't finished) was jcr:versionStorage, there was over 4Million nodes and 7Gb+ of space ... I would have liked for it to complete and have the whole picture.  But, I'm wondering, are those numbers normal? Doy you think it's time for a spring cleaning of all this?

thanks for your advice.

It is always advised to purge version [1] regularly and optimize [2].  If you have audit requirement to retain all for 7 years then the number looks normal to me. That is very rare requirement I have seen. If there is no such requirement then clean it up.
