Hi Kristian,
Time series databases like Zabbix work poorly with the Housekeeper
service. We had many similar sorts of problems as our Zabbix usage
grew. Once we partitioned the big tables, turned off the Housekeeper,
and cleaned up by dropping partitions instead everything worked much,
much, much better. When we started using partitioning, we used the
old inheiritance style. Now you can use the native partitioning.
Regards,
Ken
