title: What is causing an increase in file size to my "/dev/sda1" directory and how can I reduce the overall size?
body: <p>I recently had to increase the file size of &quot;/dev/sda1&quot; from 10GB to 50GB, but I am curious as to why the file size was so large to begin with. I am hosting a WordPress site through Google Cloud Platform and the WordPress site itself is 762MB. What else could be adding to the file size (9GB worth)?</p>
