Hi. I have a 2gb synology nas I run Gitlab via docker...i may mod the nas to say 6gb or 8gb ... But trying to avoid that.

My Gitlab backup is ~5gb monolithic .tar.gz daily. Is there any reason the tar.gz is 1 huge file, would using Linux split stop these massive Worker threads and device utilization? http://unix.stackexchange.com/a/61776/86052

An added benefit of splitting to a configurable max size is certain cloud vendors have a max filesize limit...like 5gb :/ when replicating the backup.
