My MinIO instance hosted on Railway is experiencing continuous storage growth, even though no new files are being uploaded. The stored volume increases by approximately 15 MB every 4 hours. This growth appears to be internal to MinIO and not related to actual user data.
You can see the growth on this chart. I had to wipe the volume to stop the growth a little bit.

Hey there! That's a bit odd hmm.
Just looked and don't see that but you had wiped it so that checks out.
Would also love to let you know that minio has just been deprecated and is reaching end of life https://github.com/minio/minio?tab=readme-ov-file#maintenance-mode.
For object storage, you should try out Railway Buckets! https://docs.railway.com/guides/storage-buckets

Oh, good to know!
Just taking advantage of this moment, a quick question about Railway Buckets:
I have two Minio buckets: one for resumes (private) and one for avatars (public). Is the best scenario two Railway Buckets as well?

I'd say yes! Always good to split things up that way you can control it nicely. Something to note is that Railway buckets are not public. You would have to set up a proxy service that uses presigned urls or simply proxies the file. The docs I linked cover a good way to do that!
