Is there a reason, you stay on v12 when v17 is available?
  
  
Are we to understand that the table takes in news rows but also those get deleted in about the same number so only little grow is expected if at all? Does count(*) reflect the size growth? If not did you check your processes for insert/delete? Do they apply/affect the same amount of rows before? Has there popped up an imbalance? I am assuming the processes as in my second question.
