Today we hit the problem of attachment limit on the ES forums too: all of a
sudden it was not possible to attach any file because the forum reached the
limit. I cleaned the orphan attachments but it was not enough so I raised
the limit from 100 MiB to 150 MiB... but this is not a solution, just a
delayed problem!
>From a "server point of view", which is a limit that can be considered as
"reasonable"? I prefer to not delete old attachments, but that option is
something to consider too...
BTW, which is the attachment limit set on EN forums?

Ricardo

to be sure I just checked the disk capacity

Plenty of capacity, there also no quota limit on users at OS level, so this
is a pure forum problem.

On EN forum, limit is set to 700MB. I htink it has been changed rather recently (not by me) because I remember having seen 500MB not that long ago.
Total sized used for the moment is 519MB
