I noticed exactly the same thing on my four nodes, and locate the problem in the tmp dir with no size control at all. I'm quite sure that you can play with tmp setting on freenet.conf to allocate the two temp dir (Fec & fproxy) on some other partition; maybe Mattew can suggest how. I remember something like mainport.params.servlet.1.params.tempdir=/tmp/ FECTempDir=<dir with lots of space must have trailing /> Is hard to calculate a limit for the temp space needed, not only in Freenet but for any software that need it. Anyway this is an important issue; Matthew, can you give us some detail about current implementation ? Ciao. Marco P.S.
