Is there a way to mount file system as read/write and be able to remove those big files that I dont need there?

My understanding is that shapshots are read/only by design, so I don't think you are going to be able to remove files from them.

One thing to remember is that if those big files are not changing on a regular basis, they are not taking up additional space for each snapshot. There is essentially only one copy of the data that is "shared" in each snapshot. Only when the file actually changes is when extra space is consumed.

So if you are not changing those files, you'll have to look else where to find where you space is going.

Obviously one alternative is to create another filesystem for holding these big files, one that you don't snapshot, or snapshot even less often.
