Signal-cli-rest-api container creates temporary SQLITE_DB files in the node that consumes disk space

[jphasha]

The problem

The files below tend to pile up in any one of the folders in this directory "/var/lib/containerd/io.containerd.snapshotter.v1.overlayfs/snapshots/". e.g. "/var/lib/containerd/io.containerd.snapshotter.v1.overlayfs/snapshots/182/fs/tmp/". The pile up in a short space of time which require the container to be restarted frequently in order to deal with the pile up. What causes these files? why are they piling up rapidly? what is the best solution that doe not involve having to restart the container all the time or having to manually delete them?
