Hi, I noticed something interesting. When the allocated disk space becomes 100% full (sometimes it is even exceeded by several MB), the amount of traffic performed by the node drops drastically to almost zero. After some time, when some space is freed, the node still transmits very little data. It just helps restart the container. Immediately after this traffic returns to an average of 10-15 Mbps.
