Problems with recorder exclusions

Configuration
1

Hi,
I´ve read many posts here regarding problems with the recorder, but I could not solve my problem. So I start a new threat to the problem.
To keep the size of the recorder DB small, I filtered many entities but it seems, that it does not affect the growth rate of the DB size.
This is my configuration:

recorder:
  purge_keep_days: 1000
  exclude:
    domains:
      - media_player
      - sun
      - light
      - weather
      - automation
      - binary_sensor
      - device_tracker
      - homematic
      - number
      - person
      - scene
      - switch
      - zone
    entities:
      - sensor.hacs
      - sensor.raketenbohne_b_received
      - sensor.raketenbohne_b_sent
      - sensor.raketenbohne_connection_uptime
      - sensor.raketenbohne_device_uptime
      - sensor.raketenbohne_download_throughput
      - sensor.raketenbohne_external_ip
      - sensor.raketenbohne_external_ip_2
      - sensor.raketenbohne_kib_s_received
      - sensor.raketenbohne_kib_s_sent
      - sensor.raketenbohne_kib_s_sent_2
      - sensor.raketenbohne_max_connection_download_throughput
      - sensor.raketenbohne_max_connection_upload_throughput
      - sensor.raketenbohne_packets_received
      - sensor.raketenbohne_packets_s_received
      - sensor.raketenbohne_packets_s_sent
      - sensor.raketenbohne_packets_s_sent_2
      - sensor.raketenbohne_packets_sent
      - sensor.raketenbohne_upload_throughput
      - sensor.raketenbohne_wan_status
    entity_globs:
      - sensor.erlangen*
      - sensor.internet*
      - sensor.iphone*
      - sensor.mac*
      - sensor.robert*

Here is a graph of my HA DB growth rate
HA_DB

Why is it not working?

2

Probably because some other sensor or state change is doing the majority of the writes.

There are some SQL commands you can use to work out what your most chatty sensors are here, scroll down to 2. Good-enough approach
