I've seen it, as well. In fact, having a look, I see it on one of my
machines at the moment.
[peter@epiphone peter]$ ls -l /opt/tomcat/temp/
total 578
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 587776 Apr 16 12:44 jar_cache62255.tmp
I very clearly remember coming across it. My /tmp is small on that
machine. I kept running out of disk space.
I needed to put
-Djava.io.tmpdir=/opt/tomcat/temp
in my CATALINA_OPTS (and create that directory). The stuff is created
in your temporary directory.
I think there is some other stuff that ends up in that directory, but it
doesn't appear when you do a listing in *nix systems. The numbers
weren't adding up for me. Probably the old trick where you create a
temporary file and unlink it straight away (or whatever, it's been a
while since I've done that).
I'm on build 1.3.1_03-b03 on Linux.
