Another question… Is there a way to call GC on a bundle pool that doesn’t 
belong to the GC process, like you can with director?

Thanks,

Thanks! That does the trick. I found a reference to the GC tool on the wiki, 
but on the wiki the tool is called on a certain profile. Could you clarify the 
semantics of calling GC with or without a profile?

p2 provides a GC application to deal with these cases
Try the following command line:
    eclipse -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.garbagecollector.application

I have not had much luck getting this question answered on the p2 forum, so I 
am trying here…
 
I am working on updating Sapphire build system to use a shared bundle pool for 
all the Eclipse installs that are created in the course of the build. What I am 
struggling with is how to clean the pool so that it doesn’t grow without bound. 
The build does remove old profiles, but p2 doesn’t seem to be performing any 
pool cleanup in the director invocation.
 
Is there another p2 application that I should be calling to scrub the pool?
 
Thanks,
