It might make more sense to have two limits. One for fred which controls the datastore and one for fproxy that controls temp storage usage alowing us to place temp where it makes sense. After all fred and fproxy work at quite different levels and limiting them with one parm can cause unexpected results. ie. I have gigs free on my box and a 1G datastore why does downloading a 600M file fail? ie. Why does my datastore only hold a day or so of data (image a temp file leak...)
