    oxenstored: trim history in the frequent_ops function
    
    We were trimming the history of commits only at the end of each
    transaction (regardless of how it ended).
    
    Therefore if non-transactional writes were being made but no
    transactions were being ended, the history would grow
    indefinitely. Now we trim the history at regular intervals.
