[jira] [Closed] (MESOS-391) Slave GarbageCollector needs to also
take into account the number of links, when determining removal time.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-391?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Bernd Mathiske closed MESOS-391.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
A good implementation would create a lot of extra code complexity which would only be exercised in rare circumstances on legacy file systems (ext3). The problem is in practice easy enough to avoid by using ext4, for instance.

> 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:
