   * History and chart reads are indexed for their actual shape. Composite indexes on `(router_id, timestamp)`, `(device_id, record_date)`, `(device_id, created_at)` and friends are created by migration `024_query_indexes` and, for installs that never run Alembic, at start-up; planner statistics (`ANALYZE`) are refreshed exactly when indexes are added. Measured on a copy of a deployment database with hundreds of thousands of metric rows: a one-hour interface chart stopped walking the whole index for the router, and switching a preset stopped paying hundreds of milliseconds for device event logs it never reads.
   * Tuning knobs live in the UI, not in the environment: background sample interval, housekeeping interval, telemetry stream rate, temperature and CPU alert lines, log retention. The stored value wins and the environment is its default — which matters because a RouterOS container has no `.env` to edit, no shell and no `docker exec`.
   * Device history is bounded at both ends: discovery keeps one DHCP lease per MAC (two hosts answering with the same MAC made it record two "changes" every sweep — tens of thousands of rows in six days on one device, which every device read then paid for) and reports a duplicate MAC once rather than 1 440 times a day. The event log itself is capped at the newest 200 rows per device and pruned after 90 days, and both passes run at start-up as well as on the housekeeping tick — age alone would not shrink an installed database, and the process that pays for the accumulated rows should reclaim them as soon as it exists. No query is allowed to load that history implicitly: the relationship is eager by default, so every device sweep names `noload` explicitly.
