Hi. You could try to check in the "/var/guix/gcroots" and "/var/guix/profiles" directories if there is a link to some old profiles that you forgot to delete. You could also use btrfs instead of ext4 as file system; and if you activate compression, it divides the actual size taken by the Guix store by 3 (approximately).
