VictoriaMetrics doesn't merge parts if their summary size exceeds free disk space.
This prevents from potential out of disk space errors during merge.
The number of parts may significantly increase over time under free disk space shortage.
This increases overhead during data querying, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read data from
bigger number of parts per each request. That's why it is recommended to have at least 20%
of free disk space under directory pointed by `-storageDataPath` command-line flag.
