I am running the full node and it costs me 500GB+. After syncing the snapshot, it just keep growing. I download the binary and ran "./openethereum". Then I found this issue here issue here So I tried ./openethereum --no-periodic-snapshots But again it ran out of my disk, Any suggestions?

We are recommending community to switch to 2.5.13 version: https://github.com/openethereum/openethereum/issues/11858
next version will be based on it

@rakita Shouln't you guys update the release description of 3.0.1 to mention the issue so that people know about it before they install/update? Or maybe put a warning in the readme?

Issue is same as #11705 #11713

For us only viable workaround was to downgrade our nodes. I agree there should be some note in readme.md to use 2.5.X version.

I tried many configurations, with no satisfactory result

I'm not sure what your configuration is, but if you're running an archive + trading node you will need more than 500GB.

I am not sure. All I ran is "./openethereum". This shouldn't be archive node.
