In the meantime, I plan to let the GC > run and keep monitoring it. This is the first time GC runs since we’ve increased the threshold from 10 TiB to 15 TiB free. There are at least 5 more TiBs to delete than usual, so it’s expected to take more time. Still, I’m surprised a mere ‘rm -rf’ can take this long. ‘strace -T’ on the child guix-daemon process doesn’t reveal anything obviously wrong, pause times or similar. Ludo’.
