What is the cause of a flood of “drop” operations? I logged in this morning, the first day after updating to 2023.01 to see my server loading even higher than before the update and back when I wasn’t able to block the AP spammer. Sure enough it was the DB but the queries that were driving it were not the usual things. Investigating the worker queue I also found several thousand work elements, which is also very unusual. Looking through them almost all of them are either APDelivery or Notifier work elements to perform a “drop” operation. Is this part of a data purging at the end of a window operation? That’d be good because my little instance is using about 25 GB of DB space, the bulk of that in post-user, post-content, conversation, item-uri, gserver, and apcontact tables.
