Re: Does test-write ever get expunged?
Would it be an option to create my own cronjob to remove them? It seems to PUT and then GET. So technically they don't need to stick around, do they? How many get put there before it cycles over itself and starts overwriting the old ones? On 4/13/08, dormando [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: They don't, they get overwritten eventually. It's goofy, we know :)
Re: Does test-write ever get expunged?
Seems to me a somewhat trivial process. 1) issue a delete after a successful GET 2) have the server periodically do garbage collection (which might be the 10k files you're talking about, but why not set it to say, 50 files or something much lower? Why grow a directory index so large with unneeded files?) On 4/13/08, dormando [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: You can safely ignore them... They'll create about ten thousand :) They don't take any space, it's just an artifact of developing with it. There was a patch sent to the list (sorry, I never followed up) which issued a delete, but it also removed the 10,000 limitation which I didn't like. You could apply that, keep the 10,000 file max (in case deletes fail), and it should just keep the dir clean.

1) yes, that's the patch I'm referring to. except you can't _count_ on the delete working, so you can't just pick a random filename. 2) because it doesn't matter? mike wrote: Seems to me a somewhat trivial process. 1) issue a delete after a successful GET 2) have the server periodically do garbage collection (which might be the 10k files you're talking about, but why not set it to say, 50 files or something much lower?

Who cares? 10,000 files is noise on any reasonably-sized MogileFS installation.
