Just curious, but what, exactly, does the --trim option do? The documentation states that it cuts out old data from the SummaryDB, but doesn't that defeat the purpose of graphdefang when looking for longer-term trends and such?
You should use the "--trim" option regularly. When I added it to the code, it reduced the size of my DB by 10x.
It deletes all of the detailed data that is for months previous to the current month. It keeps all of the summarized data, and it keeps all of the top 25 data per user per month and per day, but you no longer actually need the rest of the detailed line-item data in your DB.
