[RESOLVED] Our Beehaw instance is experiencing a problem that we can't identify (lemmy.ml)

Over just 14 days our physical disk usage has increased from 52% to 59%. That's approximately 1.75 GB of disk space being gobbled up for unknown reasons.

At that rate, we'd be out of physical server space in 2 -3 months. Of course, one solution would be to double our server disk size which would double our monthly operating cost.

The 'pictrs' folder named '001' is 132MB and the one named '002' is 2.2GB. At first glance this doesn't look like it's an image problem.

So, we are stumped and don't know what to do.

I also believe that by default docker does not shrink log files.

In the past I’ve used —log-opt max-size=10m or something similar to have docker keep the logs at 10megs

Would you mind sharing your code and where, precisely, to place it?
