Describe the issue

When storing podcast episode media progress there seems to be multiple redundant records so that the progress takes up a non-negligible amount of storage and is transmitted to the client in order to see listening sessions or user progress. I noticed this after the user page took 5 seconds to load and the server send 33 MB of data each time I loaded that page. Removing podcast progress for one user reduced that size to 2.6 MB.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Mark many podcast episodes as listened to and watch packet size for listening sessions or user page packet size increase by about 100 KB per episode

Audiobookshelf version

v2.2.1

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Docker
