Lifecycle requests are a good call, but being an asynchronous process, it may take some time to be processed, even when using S3. On a particularly large bucket

Lifecycle requests are a good call, but being an asynchronous process, it may take some time to be processed, even when using S3. On a particularly large bucket, I've observed it taking over a week in one instance. The console isn't magic however, it makes the same ListObjectsV2 + DeleteObjects calls in parallel.
