If you know what is the timestamp attribute, you can even write a
rule... :)<br>
<br>
rule "garbage collect"<br>
salience 100 // use a reasonable salience <br>
when<br>
$e : Event( $ts : timestamp )<br>
not Event( timestamp < $ts )<br>
Number( intValue > 1000 ) from accumulate( <br>
$c : Event(),<br>
count( $c ) )<br>
then<br>
$retract( $e );<br>
end<br>
<br>
Not sure if it is the best way, but should work... :)<br>
