warnings after Werror removed in makefile

[ghost]

When i enter "make", it gives this error:

[root@devloc jail-shell]# make
make -C jail-cmd all
make[1]: Entering directory '/jail-shell/jail-cmd'
cc -g -O2 -Werror -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fno-omit-frame-pointer -Wstrict-aliasing -c -o jail-cmd.o jail-cmd.c

I removed -Werror from Makefile in /jail-shell/jail-cmd and then entered "make". It gave me these warnings:

Removing -Werror from Makefile gets the job done but I don't think it is a good practice to ignore all these warnings. Can you fix these?

root@host:~# du -sh /var/local/jail-shell/jails/*
254M /var/local/jail-shell/jails/user1-jail

14M /var/local/jail-shell/jails/user3-jail
14M /var/local/jail-shell/jails/user4-jail

I was wondering why the size of the first user's jail is always larger while the sizes of the other users' jails are much lesser and similar. The jail conf for all the jails were similar.
I noticed this same thing in 5 OS:- ubuntu18 and 20, almalinux 8 and centos 7and 8. I jailed multiple users as root. The first jail is always above 200 mb whereas all the below jails are around 10 mb. I am just trying to understand why it is like that for my knowledge. Can you help with the explanation?
