So I've cleaned out some cruft, but I think it's likely to recur. The 
performance of the virtual disk is horribly slow and although the nexus jobs 
are set up to purge the trash and remove unused items, I think that there's a 
number of people hitting http://maven.eclipse.org for non-eclipse content.

There's also some data in /var which we can clean - there's a lot of data in 
/var/messages, for example. However, the root password (was in ~admin/pw, now 
gone) seems to have gone walkabout - anyone know where it went?

Finally, I'm concerned that the level of support (and management) that we (as 
Dash) are able to provide doesn't fit the Eclipse organisation. Given that we 
haven't succeeded in converting Eclipse to Maven hosting - and the m4e tools 
never made it to production worthy status - I'm wondering if we shouldn't shut 
the system down. Unfortunately, I don't know where the repository is being used 
from hudson slaves, so I'm not sure if that's even practical - or whether the 
repositories are being used by others.

Thoughts?

Alex
