The .grin/chain
is actually growing pretty quickly (did not realize it was growing this fast) -

Yup. Liking them large rangeproofs? :-)
Current node model is one of a full archival node. To realize the scaling benefits of a MimbleWimble type chain we need 2 additional features:
This issue is for the former.
Currently until MMR sumtree data is pruned to account for outputs spending, however all block data remains. As outputs are spent, we can also get rid of all related data, like commitments and most importantly range proofs.
