Proposed changes
We identified an issue where the action scheduler tables used by WooCommerce and other plugins accumulate an excessive amount of data, sometimes reaching up to 20 GB. This is because expired actions are retained in the database for 30 days by default, allowing the table size to grow uncontrollably, even reaching 100 GB in some cases.
As a quick and straightforward fix, this PR changes the default retention period from 30 days to 5 days. This adjustment should significantly reduce the table size and prevent database bloat without requiring extensive code changes.
