Hey Mike,

The unsatisfying answer is that PuppetDB handles giant facts (particularly array-valued facts) pretty badly right now, and facter's disks, partitions, and mountpoints facts can all get pretty huge in cases such as SANs and similar. Can you try and see if the bulk of those fact paths are coming from a small set of your nodes? I expect this query might help:

You can mask the facts on a per-node basis by creating a custom fact with value nil and weight 100 as described here:

https://docs.puppet.com/facter/3.1/custom_facts.html#fact-precedence

(this assumes you aren't using these facts for anything, but that sounds like the case.)

Longer term, this is something we need to fix on our end. I created https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PDB-2631 to track the issue. https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/FACT-1345 may also be related.

If you get those nodes tracked down, would you mind telling us the operating system?

Wyatt
