Why does the H2 database file grow big very much than data size?












1















I had H2 database of approximately 500MB.
The version of H2 is 1.2.147.
The storage engine of the database is PageStore.
The JDBC URLs are as follows.




jdbc:h2:file://C:/H2/client;IFEXISTS=TRUE;MVCC=TRUE;DATABASE_EVENT_LISTENER='dummy.H2DBMonitor';AUTO_SERVER=TRUE;LOG=2




I made a version of H2 1.4.192 without changing the storage engine of the database.
When my customer used a database, the problem that the file size of the database expanded to up to 80GB occurred.



The database file should become small when I close a connection, but the size of my database file does not become small and may grow big.



It is a phenomenon not to occur in 1.2.147.
Is this problem a bug of the H2 database?



In addition, I get the following errors from trace.db.




pageStore: Transaction log could not be truncated; size: 462MB




Is the error related to this problem?
