Regarding disk space management, is there any way for fred to know how
full the current partition is? Not just how much space it is using for
itself. I suspect not due to java and cross-platform issues. But in my
view, disk space is like RAM. If it is empty it is wasted.  Cache
something in it! Can fred be made to take, say, 75% (just to provide a
large safe buffer, perhaps this should be configurable) of all the free
disk space and monitor the disk space (a check once a minute would
probably suffice) and shrink the store if it sees the system getting low
or grow if it sees there is plenty of disk?  I currently have 30G free but
it won't always be that way. Every so often I use LVM to resize the
partition depending on my current disk space needs.
