I have a WooCommerce shop hosted on Kinsta with over 20,000 products, and it primarily consists of a lot of media files. According to the Kinsta dashboard and what I see when logged in via SSH, my site is using about **13GB** of storage.

However, when I download my site using DevKinsta, the download process shows that it’s pulling **197GiB** —which is nearly the size of the container’s available space. This massive discrepancy seems really strange to me.

Could this be a bug in how DevKinsta reports or handles downloads? Is it possible that some unnecessary or temporary files are being included during the download?

Hello @tomdevisser 👋 Welcome to Kinsta community!

We’ve seen this happen before and it is indeed a visual bug.

You can let the process run through and at the end, it should show the correct site size 👍

Kind regards!
