Public bug reported:
Since my server (running xenial) updated to cups 2.1.3-4ubuntu0.9 last
night the CUPS logs have had a considerable number of messages from
cupsd stating "Removing document files" - about 3 or 4 a second
constantly. Stopping the cups service stops the log-spam, and starting
it again immediately resumes it (after a few hundred "Loading from
cache..." messages). I've tried removing document files from the cache
(there were a couple of ancient ones lying around - it's not a heavily
used printer), but this made little difference to the symptoms.
I'm pretty confident this is due to the upgrade as:
1. the spam in the logs starts immediately after CUPS reloads (after the
upgrade)
2. looking at the diff for 2.1.3-4ubuntu0.9 it does seem to be fiddling
with things related to job clean-up (e.g. cupsdUpdateJobs and
cupsdCleanJobs in scheduler/job.c)
If I can provide any further information, do let me know!
