    Description

      I am importing data from csv files of size more than 1GB (and have 15 files) using mongoimport. After importing near 20GB data it goes out of space on my system which has 250GB hard disk. I go through a post (Database size on disk increases as a multiple of the CSV file I mongoimport?) stating that mongodb increase the disk space in almost a factor of 10 times.

      Can we avoid this problem? or mongodb works in this way only.
