Figures. I still think it'd be good to emphasize that this particular
directory might be better of in a separate partition, or in a directory
with a quota.
Btw, wouldn't it be possible that a PmWiki creates some many, and big,
pages that the partition gets full? What would happen if I wrote a
script that started creating pages at pmwiki.org? (Besides you being
angry with me of course :-)
..
The operating system is often less graceful about things when a
partition gets full.
It's the OS I'm worried about... Doesn't this basically mean that a lot
of hosts with PmWiki can be brought down quite easily?
