Docker-setup space usage
✅Solved
Can you tell me how much storage space I should have on my VPS for clawd setup with docker? Both for initial setup, and for expected future storage usage.
Solution
Based on the docs and typical usage, here's the storage breakdown:
Initial setup:
- Docker image: ~500MB-1GB
- Config/state (
- Workspace (
Running/ongoing:
- Minimum disk: ~1-2GB total
- Recommended: 10-20GB SSD for comfortable headroom
What grows over time:
- Logs (~10-50MB/month)
- Session/message history in
- Media attachments if you send/receive files
VPS recommendation: Start with a 10GB disk minimum. The docs note that 512MB-1GB RAM + 1 vCPU is the absolute minimum, with 2GB RAM recommended. Storage is rarely the bottleneck - RAM is more likely to be a constraint if you run multiple channels or enable sandboxing.
