However, as Carlos was saying earlier, having it that big apparently ends up using quite a bit of RAM un-necessarily.
No, that is not what I said, or what I meant. The journal is initially stored only on RAM, or to be precise, in a filesystem that exists only in RAM and Swap, under /run/log/journal/. That is my case. When you have the /var/log/journal/ directory, the journal is stored there exclusively. That is your case. No RAM.
I have always been told that 20GB should be plenty big for a root file system.
Depends on what you install :-) And also if it is btrfs. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
