Severe DistantHorizons.sqlite file Bloat in World files.
Hello. Ive found that the SQlite Files for Distant Horizons Labled "DistantHorizons.sqlite" in saves/(World)/data and saves/(World)/DIM-1/data get extremely huge very quickly (10GB+) Not moving more than about 2000 blocks from spawn in one direction. I deleted both SQlite files and let DH reload in my world and the SQlite file in the data folder size jumped to about 700MB just sitting at my spawn point at 128 draw distance within about a minute. The DIM-1 sqlite file generated and only went up to about 32kb in the same instance.
The File size also increases by tens of kilobytes while not moving.
Is this an intended usage of space by DH? Or is this unoptimized data storage? A Memory leak/bloat?
When I found the file of my small world to jump to 15GBs I got quite concerned when only 2 files accounted for 14GB of it.
Thanks!

In newer versions compression will be added to DH, which will drastically reduce file size
This is expected but, as majo24 said, will be improved in future versions of distant horizons. My SQLite file is 105gb.
Bump. How do i access the changelog for 2.0.3? There are a huge amount of hidden channels in this server i cant find it. Was the memory storage changed this update?
there's probably something in the DH discord for that
Thank you @hardester
