Subject: [PATCH] Remove old stats from whisper
Over time, graphite seems to have acquired a range of keys that are no
longer updated and can be quite confusing when trying to find data.
This small cron job (cribbed from suggestions in [1]) should remove
all old data that hasn't been updated in nine months (this should be
long-enough to cover all manner of periodic jobs)
