Anyone knows?

This is important since if it's growing too fast there won't be enough space.

    FMS does not do any compression of video for disk optimization per se - video compression needs to be done at source end - either while encoding of live source or when you are creating content for on-demand delivery. However FMS does support recording is format called as "raw" which is less memory intensive (this is RAM and not disk) - however i do not think even raw format would give some sort of advantage in terms of disk space.
