It might not technically be unity's fault, why is unity logging a program's output anyway?
Spotify causes a similar issue with the `unity7.log` file, if you have too many files open it fills the log with this: ``` 09:57:53.201 A [file_system_monitor_linux.cpp:104] Check failed: errno == EINTR: 09:57:53.201 A [file_system_monitor_linux.cpp:104] Check failed: errno == EINTR: 09:57:53.201 A [file_system_monitor_linux.cpp:104] Check failed: errno == EINTR: ``` Eating away gigabytes of space per minute, wasting write cycles of my SSD. Maybe unity can skip adding identical lines, maybe it can notify the user when a program is putting out so much errors, maybe we can just disable the log? Anything but messing up our drive. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240848 Title: ~/.cache/upstart takes up around 70GB of space due to unity and mediascanner To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1240848/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
