Why is my temporary partition full of Snaper files?

We need to store temporary files to perform compression or encryption on your data, as it cannot be processed as a stream.

By default, we process files smaller than 10 MB in RAM and larger ones using your temporary partition. You can modify this behavior by editing the general.tmp_file_threshold configuration value in ~/.config/snaper/config.yaml.

After your file is uploaded, Snaper automatically removes it from your temporary partition.
