[jira] [Issue Comment Deleted] (MESOS-391) Slave GarbageCollector needs to also take into account the number of links, when determining removal time.

Ritwik Yadav updated MESOS-391:
-------------------------------
    Comment: was deleted

(was: On a second thought, why should there be a link_max global flag? Wouldn't all slaves have different resources available to them? Setting a global flag would mean that we essentially set it to min(available_disk_on_slave1, available_disk_on_slave2, available_disk_on_slave3,...., available_disk_on_slaveN). Wouldn't it make more sense to determine the number of extra links that can be created by a slave on the fly after every call to checkDiskUsage based on how much space is left and caching it for use while creation of new links until next call to checkDiskUsage?)

> The slave garbage collector does not take into account the number of links present, which means that if we create a lot of executor directories (up to LINK_MAX), we won't necessarily GC.
> As a result of this, the slave crashes:
