Are we configured correctly for storing files?

Our deployment Postgres instance has grown to 17G. Here's a summary of the table sizes:

Given that we're storing files separately, the file_resource table seems excessively large. Are we configured correctly?

I would also say that jobrunr_jobs looks too big. Is it a relevant information for the service? Should it be archived to a table in another scheme, for example, and archived there regularly?
