Hallo again, I just purged the whole storage using podman system reset. I verified that ~/.local/share/containers became empty (only bolt database was still remaining using about 200Mb space) I have run 2 containers from docker.io: ibmcom/db2 and ibmcom/db2console. podman system df reports space usage by images 4Gb and by containers 6Mb. podman images command shows consistent values (two images, 2.83Gb + 1.21Gb) system df command shows that 32Gb is used on ~/.local/share/containers filesystem du shows that all this space is located under ~/.local/share/containers/storage/vfs/dir This directory contains 32 subdirs, 11 subdirs of 1.1Gb each, 6 subdirs of 2.6Gb each, rest subdirs take anywhere from 94Mb to 646Mb When I try to diff -rw for directories of same size, I see only reports for missing symlink files, but never real file differences. No real activity was performed with podman apart from running these two containers. I am running podman 4.3.1 on debian bookworm (kernel 6.0.8) What is wrong?

Hallo, I notice some disk space discrepancy when running rootless podman containers. I use dedicated fs for podman storage mountrd to ~/.local/share/containers. df and du show consistent used disk space: island:named [master]> df -h ~/.local/share/containers /dev/mapper/sys-containers 117G 84G 32G 73% ~/.local/share/containers
island:named [master]> sudo du -sh ~/.local/share/containers/storage/{vfs,volumes} 74G /home/ivans/.local/share/containers/storage/vfs 11G /home/ivans/.local/share/containers/storage/volumes island:named [master]> But space usage shown by podman system df is about 44% less than reported above:
island:named [master]> podman system df TYPE TOTAL ACTIVE SIZE RECLAIMABLE Images 32 5 39.49GB 25.96GB (66%) Containers 7 7 1.85GB 0B (0%) Local Volumes 2 2 10.83GB 0B (0%)
Volume space is practically same, it's vfs space (where as I understand images and containers are located) that differs. I also run buildah as same user, but buildah ls shows nothing. I have ran podman system prune, but it reclaimed 0 bytes. So is this extra space usage expected? Or is it sthing wrong with my storage? Thanks and regards, -- Michael Ivanov
