Hello,
I've noticed much bigger system disk usage after last update. Is that normal, or should I be worried?
Increased disk usage

That isn't normal unless you have a bad rsync job, something logging crazy, and/or you are using plex.

I don't have any rsync job, but I'm using plex.
Where should I start looking for cause of this? -

I use PLEX. Is there a way to avoid this? -

Where should I start looking for cause of this?The database is stored /var/lib/plexmediaserver and it gets large when the media collection is large. I don't use plex so I can't help there.
Is there a way to avoid this?
Use something else? see answer above about how to fix.

I've recently added 5 more files to plex, and it didn't increase much since then.
Mine plexmediaserver folder is around 500MB now, so I guess it is something else?EDIT:
Looks like I found my problem, debug.log - 5GB, kern.log - 5GB, syslog.log - 4GB
The question is now, why did they increase so quick? -

This might give you some insight, but the consensus is to move the plex database from your root structure just in case it increases exponentially. However where that gives an example as /home you really need somewhere on /srv/disk-by i.e one your hard drives....but it can't be a samba share.

This might give you some insigh
This is what the plugin does and it doesn't seem to work.

When I see things like this I just research it, curiosity, but there seems to be a couple of ways of doing this, the one in the link and other is a symlink from the original location to the new. But if this doesn't work in the plugin I wonder if the issue is that plex needs to run before the changes are made, it shouldn't make any difference but it might explain it.
