I don't know how I missed this in the past, but I discovered that one
difference between the RPM and tarball installs is that the RPM installs
a weekly cron job to run zeopack. I learned this when I saw that on a
problem zenoss server, several weeks worth of zeopack jobs were still
trying to run. The Data.fs file had grown to 22GB on that system.
I shut down all but zeoctl and zopectl, and ran the zeopack manually; after
about 1/2 hour the resulting Data.fs was down to 47MB. However, this morning
I see that it's back up to 528MB. Why does this file grow so quickly?
Perhaps zeopack should be run nightly instead? There is also a recommendation
in the official Zope docs against packing to the current instance; the risk
is that active transactions may be clobbered.
