> We've been trying to set up Continuum and consequently we started
> running some builds. It all worked nicely until the CVS server ran out
> of inodes in its /tmp directory. It looks like it's not the normal
> checkouts that people do that's causing this ... it appears to be
> Continuum.
> We tried a small build with Continuum and lo and behold: /tmp had a
> new directory that was not deleted at the end of the checkout. So
> we're fairly certain it's something Continuum related.
> CVS creates a sort of cache directory (in /tmp) for each checkout (it
> stores the CVS directories, not any of the files that are being
> checked out) and this directory (and all of its *many* subdirectories)
> are not being deleted. Apparently, it doesn't notice that the checkout
> has finished. Something like a session not being closed. After three
> days of this our server runs out of inodes and nothing works anymore.
> We've created a cron job to remove these CVS directories from /tmp at
> the end of the day so we have a workaround.
