My 37 GiB ext4 partition apparently has a total of around 2.5 M inodes. Currently (after recently running the garbage collector), its inodes usage is at 15%: df -i /dev/sda1 Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/sda1 2445984 358647 2087337 15% / My home dir only uses 56 k inodes: du --inodes -s ~ 56002 /home/maxim This would suggest that in my case it really was the Guix store which was responsible for consuming all the available inodes. I'll keep monitoring it as it progressively fills up again. Thanks for pointing at the --inodes option of du, I didn't know about it! Maxim
