Weird! Tahoe only touches the disk underneath it's base directory (which is ~/.tahoe by default), so if du doesn't show anything there, and if you don't have any symlinks pointing off to somewhere else (which I frequently do when I need to put the large .tahoe/storage/shares directory on some other partition), then the usage isn't coming from disk. If it's coming from swap, i.e. because a process is using a tremendous amount of virtual memory, then killing the process should immediately free it up. Also 'top' or 'ps aux' should quickly reveal the culprit. Rebooting a unix box typically deletes everything in /tmp , so if you're seeing it come back on reboot, you might want to poke around in /tmp and see if there are large files in there. let us know what you find! -Brian _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
