Will you change this in future? Otherwise the index files could
fill up
a considerable amount of disk space after a single message peak in the
topic.
A quite simple but effective strategy could be to truncate resp.
recreate the index files when the number of messages in the kaha
storage
drops to zero. However, as this should not lead to recreating index
files over and over again for a slow producer / fast consumer
scenario,
the recreation should be done only if the number of stored messages
has
reached some configurable minimum before.
