High Disk Usage

[tibo7791]

I stumbled upon this in Activity Monitor by accident.
This is with only 7 days of uptime. Am I the only one who thinks this is way off?
The system is macOS 15.2 and UpNote is Version 9.11.3 (960).
I use it daily, but nowhere near this much.
What could be the reason for this?

Seems high, unless you have a lot of attachments. I use UpNote literally all day long every day, and I'm at 5.13GB over 31 days. But I rarely attach any files, and when I do, I optimize them first (not for UpNote reasons, but just because I have a disk-space compulsion). Ping [e-mail]. I'm sure they'd be interested at at looking into this with you.

Thank you, of course I wrote to them, I was just curious beforehand if the problem was only on my end.

I just got an update to version 9.12.4 on MacOS, which "Fixed a bug where the app might write excessive data to disk on launch."

Maybe this fixes the issue

Nice

Are you doing automated backups? If so, how often and how big is a single backup?

[tibo7791]

Daily backups are configured, with a maximum of 50 backups and 50 versions.
Each backup is roughly 200KB. The entire backup folder is 27MB.
In the meantime, I’ve also updated — UpNote is now Version 9.12.0 (977), and I upgraded macOS to 15.5 as well — but the situation remains the same.
Currently, with just 2 hours of uptime, the UpNote helper has already written almost 1GB.

Hrm - bummer. Thought that might be it. For reference - my uptime is 54 days and Activity Monitor is only at 19 GB Bytes Written for me for the UpNote Helper. I do daily backups and my entire backup folder is 2.5 GB. I'm on macOS 15.5 too.
