JCR Size bloat

["George A. Francis" <Ge...@radintl.com>]

Our JCR repo is bloated to a size of 3GB.  Looking into it, I found that
there seem to be thousands of entries in /jcr:system/jcr:versionStorage
that are orphaned, ie: they refer to items that were removed from the
repository.  I was told that these history items couldn't be deleted
from the repo (when I try I get a JCR exception).  How can these
orphaned history nodes be removed?
Regards,
George

Hi,

We get the same issue for each of our projects.
If you look at JCR-134 in the Jackrabbit JIRA 
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-134) you'll see a patch 
attempting to solve this issue by automatically removing orphaned and 
empty VersionHistories.
As far as I know, the patch have not been reviewed yet.
You may comment the issue if you also want the fix to be applied soon.

Regards,
Cédric
