    1. SSRS uses an own HTTP.SYS to host Report Manager Portal and the web services.
    2. All SSRS objects, like shared data sources and reports, are store in ReportServer database, table "Catalog".
    3. Not clear for me what you mean?

    what's the size of this path ?

    Look it up in Windows Explorer.

    will it growth

    The folder contains SSRS log file, that can cause a size growth.
