[QUESTION]: Disk space not reclaiming, what do I need to adjust?

[mattdurham]

Question.

I am using BadgerDB for a durable queue and in most cases Key,Values exist for 60s and then are deleted. Over the past hour no space has been reclaimed. I call RunValueLogGC(0.01) every 5 minutes but it never reclaims any space.

My options are

opts.SyncWrites = true
opts.MetricsEnabled = true
opts.NumVersionsToKeep = 0
opts.MaxLevels = 1
opts.NumLevelZeroTables = 0
opts.NumLevelZeroTablesStall = 2

Thank you

Is it possible for you to share the badger data directory? I can run value log gc on it locally and figure out why it is not cleaning up these files?

I'm having the same problem. gc doesn't automatically clean up disk space.
