Research direction

Start with spring-boot-admin-server/src/main/java/de/codecentric/boot/admin/server/eventstore/ConcurrentMapEventStore.java at the referenced line, then inspect its related subclasses and how the event store is configured. Add a configurable property for the current max size of 100, and verify that changing it affects when compaction runs.

Description

type: enhancement

Hello.

It would be great if the value used for https://github.com/codecentric/spring-boot-admin/blob/master/spring-boot-admin-server/src/main/java/de/codecentric/boot/admin/server/eventstore/ConcurrentMapEventStore.java#L52 (and related subclasses) could be configurable with a property rather than being hardcoded to 100.

In this way, if wanted, some memory can be spared by running the compaction more often.
