Is there a way to make durable-queue preserve completed tasks as a means of replayability/disaster recovery?
I see :complete? helps classify tasks on startup but on put! it looks like queues prune slabs and doesn't honor that opt

Though it looks like even with :complete? if you're actively completing tasks they’ll be cleaned up regardless since status is checked before that fn. 🤔
So it seems like “no, not out of the box”

If completed tasks are not pruned, the queues/slabs will grow indefinitely which seems... dangerous?

In my use-case, it'd be gated to 1 months worth of tasks (<100 GB of data)

Feel free to create a GH issue with a repro case, and an explanation of what you'd like to happen, and I can take a look.
The remaining open issues on durable-queue are both hard and long-standing -- esp. the thread safety issues -- so it may not be easily solvable.

Ok will do. 👍
