## History dashboard showing long-term statistics
The history dashboard has gotten some love from [@karwosts] this release, he

The history dashboard did get some love from [@karwosts] this release; he
added a big improvement to _all_ the graphs shown there.
Previously, the graphs would only show the state history, which is limited
to a few days, until the data is removed. This is not always very useful,
for example, when you want to look back further in time.
Previously, the graphs would only show the state history, limited to a few days,
until the data is removed. This is not always very useful, for example,
when you want to look back further in time.
[@karwosts] came up with a solution for this, and the history dashboard now
combines the state history with the recorded long-term statistics, to provide
you insights into the past.

The right and darker part of the graph line is provided by the state history
(like before), and the long-term statistics provide the left and lighter part
of the graph line (and is thus downsampled hourly data).
If you have manually modified the [days to keep before purging](/integrations/recorder#configuration-variables)
recorder on your system, consider removing that customization. With the
long-term statistics and new feature, you most likely don’t need it anymore,
resulting in a smaller database and, thus, faster and smaller backups.
