@trogwarz This is probably more of a mongodb issue. Most Databases keep freed up storage and don't give it back to the OS.
You might need to run compact on the upload collections: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/command/compact/
Thanks for the suggestion! Tried this with no luck (disk space didn't change at all). I don't use Mongo for anything except RocketChat:
use rocketchat
db.getCollectionNames().forEach(function (collectionName) {
print('Compacting: ' + collectionName);
if ('system.views' == collectionName) return; // This is required because otherwise i'll get an error
db.runCommand({ compact: collectionName, force: true });
});

Any suggestions here what to do? I had 14G of data from last 3 years so expected 20G at max in 2024. But now it takes 57G just after RC update – which is three times more than expected.
Description:
Hi, i'm using RocketChat 6.5.3 (mongo wiredTiger), installed manually on Ubuntu LTS. Retention policy enabled to 180 days and ALL checkboxes are on also – i want to just delete old uploads to save disk space but keep messaging history. If there is a way to fix that 57Gb again to 14Gb then i don't need retention policy at all.
After turning on retention, i see empty messages in the chat history instead of uploads (it's ok) but disk space remains exactly the same even after restart mongo/rocket.
Installation is pretty old (first message was in 2020 with 3.x version) and it took only 14 Gb of space before upgrade. I did upgrade to the latest version (6.5.3) early January this year and now (after a month) it takes whooping 57 Gb with the same users and same activity, which is also too weird for me.
I've also checked collection sizes and got this:
But in my disk i have more weird files:
Steps to reproduce:
Expected behavior:
There is no huge weird files in mongo lib and retention policy cleans up space when deleting uploaded files.
Actual behavior:
There are big files that are probably have no use and retention policy don't clean up the disk space.
