Some questions about a new Proxmox VE Build for a private homelab.

Q: What is the idle CPU utilization of an average Proxmox installation?

My build is has more than 10% CPU Usage when idle, is this normal?

Q: Local storage is filling up rapidly with something? How can I identify what is causing this? I had to reinstall after the last configuration stopped working properly when local storage reached 100% in a default configuration.

Local storage at 5.0% disk usage already after about 30 minutes

Local storage at 13.5% disk usage already after about more than one hour

TIA!
