Background
When auditing is enabled, it keeps track of information for every query for as long as it is active. After a long time, this can end up using significant amounts of space and/or have a detrimental effect on the system performance. Auditing data can be deleted using the TRUNCATE AUDIT LOGS statement.
Improvement
Whenever the size of the auditing data reaches 25% of the size of Database RAM, a warning in the Exasol System Log is generated
