The simplest way to do it is to set your profiles as shadow profiles. This
means the data is discarded after it is processed.
The rrd files have a fixed size and are allocated on creation. If you were
to run out of disk space, the rrds would not be affected.
Do not delete the nfcapd files by hand -- let nfsen do it
