How does that work with yum upgrade on persistent images?
It was actually to help that case (turnover with packages in /var/cache/yum eats up blocks fast). But yeah, other bits of /var/cache could matter and come from a package I guess. Will switch it to just overmount /var/cache/yum

Right, but if that's a new openoffice package.... you may run tight on RAM
pretty quickly.

And if you instead are using an overlay that's one gig, that openoffice update has made the overlay half full. With no chance of reclaiming the space that was just for the downloaded bits from the rpm.

Yeah, all answers kind of suck.  Maybe unionfs will save us eventually.
