I’m seeing a lot of written data to my disk when my container is running.
(It’s running Mastodon).
About 5GB / hour.
But I’m a single user instance and my containers does not receive even near that amount of data during an hour.
What is writing to disk?
Running iotop on the host it looks like z_vdev_file is writing most to disk.
That’s ZFS. Is is normal for ZFS to write much?
