Windows Subsystem for Linux September 2023 update
- sznio 3y ago> autoMemoryReclaim – Makes the WSL VM shrink in memory as you use it by reclaiming cached memory > Sparse VHD – Automatically shrinks the WSL virtual hard disk (VHD) as you use it Finally. For the first one I would just restart the VM, but the second just consumed my whole drive with no way to get it back. I had to resort to enabling filesystem compression on the vhd file.
- biscuitech 3y agoIs this why the WindowsApp/Ubuntu folder was hitting upwards 70Gbs recently? I never really paid attention to the size of the VHD, and assumed that I had somehow generated gigabytes of dist and node_modules.
- waych 3y agoIsn't this just an fstrim followed by Optimize-VHD to get the space back?
