I doubled it from ~10 GiB to ~20 GiB:

This example template uses EFI, which I'm not that familiar with. But I
suspect something about the bootloader or filesystems configuration is
wrong.

From 'gnu/system/examples/lightweight-desktop.tmpl':

  ;; Use the UEFI variant of GRUB with the EFI System
  ;; Partition on /dev/sda1.
  (bootloader (grub-configuration (grub grub-efi)
                                  (device "/dev/sda1")))

  ;; Assume the target root file system is labelled "my-root".
  (file-systems (cons* (file-system
                         (device "my-root")
                         (title 'label)
                         (mount-point "/")
                         (type "ext4"))
                       (file-system
                         ;; Specify partition here since FAT 
                         ;; labels are currently unsupported.
                         (device "/dev/sda1")
                         (mount-point "/boot/efi")
                         (type "vfat"))
                       %base-file-systems))
