Lucrene and disk space

I have 150 gigs available on my server.  I just had an error that the /tmp 
directory is full.  Sure enough, it is full of Lucrene stuff.  Is this a 
normal problem for people?  Should i set up a cron to purge the tmp 
directory every night?

For some it is a problem. In fact it is a feature :)

No. Try increasing the size of your /tmp directory to several GB. My
/tmp on SuSE Linux 10.1 has 2.2 GB and I have never run into these
issues. Then again it depends on how many pages you're processing.
