Deleting items

[safl]

Hello!

I am having performance hits when deleting items, since the delete_item also deletes the entire history+trends for the given item.

I'f i remove the function calls to delete_history and delete_trends. Will the History + trends be deleted on housekeeping? Since i only keep one day of history i can live with having deprecated data until housekeeping starts.
Or is there a better workaround?

Since this would speed up several procedures i am very interested in the answer.

Regards,
Simon

I'm improving housekeeping to deal with such situations soon. No item history data will be removed immediately.

Sounds great!
Any idea as of when it will be available?

Could it be expanded like this:

If an item is deleted include an option of not deleting any history / trends. So if the item is added again one would still have all of the old history / trends? Or is this a sidestep? I guess it could potentially fill up the DB with unused data.
