          Do you have Suricata enabled by chance? There's a bug where the log files aren't set to rotate (by default?).

          Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
          When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to reboot, or more depending on packages, and device or disk speed.

            I didn't know you could install pfSense on less than 1GiB of storage.

              Missed that...per https://www.pfsense.org/products/ the requirement is a 1 GB drive, and "Note the minimum requirements are not suitable for all environments." I just looked at an SG-3100 that is not running any packages and it is using 13% of 7 GiB, or per quick math, is using 910 MiB. So yeah 908 MiB is probably too small considering there should be space for updates and logs.
