Hi Matt, Thanks for your reply!
I finally solved the problem by deleting all the content in the flowfile directory, but here are my observations: 1) The problem was coming from one of the cluster node, when this node was out of the cluster, the queue were reporting 0 flowfile. 2) The first time I restarted this node, about 20'000 flowfile reappeared and were treated, every time I subsequently restarted this node about 20-30k flowfiles were again treated (I was only specifically monitoring one queue, but it happened for multiple other queues) 3) After 3-4 reboots of this node the queue reported 90K elements and remained in this state despite multiple other restart. 4) The flowfile directory on this node contained 200 MB of data 5) I tried to setup the flowfile expiration but it didn't do anything to the queue status 6) I tried to change the backpressure threshold without any effect. 7) During the problem the queue was operating normally on the cluster, and flowfiles were flowing through it without any issue.
