Pruning Nethermind

Overview

Nethermind as of January 2024 takes about 1.1 TiB of space on a snap sync, and then grows by ~ 27 GiB/week.

When it starts to fill its disk, it can be online pruned (no downtime) to free up space again, to around the size of a fresh sync.

Prerequisites

  • This is not an archive node. Do not try to prune an archive node.
