@marmarek: If this is normal behavior, should we just update the minimum storage requirement to, e.g., 50GB?

32GB is the minimum recommended. It's usable provided you trim the templates after updating.(qvm-trim-template in 3.2). If you're working on the edge of what's acceptable then you need to take some care of your system. (Same applies if you are running with 4GB RAM.)
