But you said some posts before that using tmpfs would "solve" the problem of not cleaning /tmp/systemd-private-NNNNNN. What is the difference between using tmpfs and some other FS?
It doesn't really "solve". A tmpfs is volatile, so when you reboot it disappears. A full erase of the directory at boot or halt does exactly the same.
Of course, a tmpfs is faster, as long as all the files in there are small so it does not eat your memory.
And it doesn't "solve" the problem, because if you do not reboot in a year the files would be there all the same. By the thousands.
So Cristan's "solution" means use tmpfs to have a memleak instead of wasting disk space. Memleak is not critical because it gets fixed automatically by reboot ... cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
