Hard to say from here what happened. Compaction and view creation are

Thanks Dave,
Sorry - I wasn't clear before. It's very possible that if the disk
filled then it might have been because of logs, etc from other running
processes. What I'm really curious about is more:
- whether couch will degrade gracefully (warn / terminate / etc) in a
low disk situation rather than why couch might be taking up disk space
- whether the error logs I saw are consistent with the low disk space theory
RE: What was going on at the time, local processes on the same box were
sending approx 60 - 100 requests / second in to couch, a mixture of
mostly document retrievals, but maybe 1 in every 6 requests was a PUT to
create a document. I'm pretty confident that view creation was not
happening at the time, I also don't think that compaction would have
been running either (logs have no mention of compacting, and we are
logging at info level).
Thanks,
Mark
