GitHub user JoaoJandre added a comment to the discussion: KVM snapshots are not being removed
Also @DaanHoogland, the KVM incremental snapshots are never coalesced, as it is expected that the chain will end and eventually be removed from storage. The coalesce operation is costly in terms of CPU and time; thus, it would bring more trouble than benefits; at least that was the decision process during implementation. It would be possible to implement coalesce in the future if it was deemed a good option. Just for comparison's sake, Veeam does the same process of keeping old backup deltas.
