I looked back at your posting history, and I see in [Very slow Sidekiq issue … massive numbers of unread user notifications](https://meta.discourse.org/t/very-slow-sidekiq-issue-with-large-queue-due-to-massive-numbers-of-unread-user-notifications/140716) that you were running a 32 core 128 GB server, with a very large and active userbase. So in that context, I see why 34G is not such a large number! For context, though, it might be helpful (and interesting) to know the size of your setup - possibly here or even in your bio? (maybe daily and monthly active users, size of database backups, server config in RAM, swap, disk, CPUs.) Maybe even a thread where we just share our stats - large and small.
