I am 1 month into (17% complete) work files, and my disk consumption continues to grow.
At present I am nearing 60gb utilization on a 320gb hdd. I had bumped up disk allocation a couple times in the past couple weeks to keep SETI going, otherwise it was locked up for lack of disk space.

Any suggestions?
FWIW... I\'ve gotten this message in logs, if that helps : Task hadcm3istd_0jrx_1920_160_15940379_3 exited with zero status but no \'finished\' file

Thanks,
Major Tom

More than likely, you\'ve accidentally turned \"recording\" on. Please see this thread for more info.

Oh yeah...That was it! Almost 250,000 files!

I did a list of the tmp directory from the command line and it almost gave me a seizure :)

Thanks for the help!
