Doubt ntop is really frozen. There's nothing in the main threads that depends on disk space. Creating web pages, however, does require a small temporary file.
What to do?
(1) Like all tools, monitor your disk usage on an on-going basis.
(2) You can use switches and filters (read the man page) to configure ntop
to store less stuff.
(3) You can also look at purging older rrd files. Although individually small, there are lots of them - and so this is usually the largest component of ntop's usage of disk space. RRD files which haven't been updated in (weeks|months) (e.g. find . -type f -ctime 30 [days]) usually have little value and purging them is simple via a cron job.
It may not help - the number of older files can be quite small if your users are routinely contacting the same hosts:
$ find . -type f -ctime 30 | wc -l
1309
$ find . -type f | wc -l 40458
If so, then you are back to #2.
