Hi, We're running a bidirectional replicated (two nodes) setup where a database contains a couple of hundred small documents, where each document is updated with new data every few seconds.
We're having a few problems getting this to work. - _revs_limit in itself does not stop the database from growing. This is by design as I understand it. - A low _revs_limit (=10 for example) seems to break replication. Typically only a few documents are updated through the replication to the node that is not directly written to. The others are not updated. - Regularly compacting the database seems to have some performance (as well as stability) implications, at least in a replicated scenario. What's the recommended work flow here? We need to keep updating the database 24/7/365 with data, but without the size growing uncontrollably? Kind regards, Fredrik Widlund
