"Oldest Event reached" when there should be more

[C0rn3j]

Our stack is on 5.1.2 at the moment, so I'm guessing we're using the 5.1.2 Logtrail release, sorry if this is fixed in the latest release.

A server crashed - generating a lot of logs upon crashing and rebooting(around 1500), and I'd like to view those logs in Logtrail. However I can only scroll so far up after selecting the host, after a while I just get "Oldest Event Reached".

Is there a hard limit set to how many logs can be viewed?

EDIT: Worked around this issue by viewing events starting from a certain date.

I did introduce max_events_to_keep_in_viewer parameter in logtrail.json which will control the number of events to be shown in event viewer. But when there are more events it should delete the events from the other end of the list. I will check if this change is causing the issue

@sivasamyk any update on this behavior ?
