Is there any way to allocate more ephemeral storage to a machine, right now I only see 8GB mounted on /
The other way would be to allocate and destroy persistent volumes but that seems like a worse idea

On another note, is it possible to make /
persistent?
There’s no way to allocate more ephemeral storage currently. What’s the issue you’re having? Initially, I don’t see a problem allocating and discarding persistent volumes if you need the space.
I am interested on more ephemeral space too, my use case is downloading videos and processing them with ffmpeg on a machine.
With allocation and discarding volumes do you mean using the same volume deleting previous files or running the commands flyctl volumes create
and destroy
? How much time do these commands take on average?
