When I went to Tiger I did an Erase and Install and in the process
seemed to recover about 1GB of vanished disk space. Since then I
have kept a notional track of my usage and seem to have about 0.5GB
nibbled away somewhere. Clearing caches and so on has no effect.
"Where is my Disk Space" gives a full audit but no clues, it is
certainly not disappearing in large recognisable chunks. I am
tempted to SuperDuper the whole lot across to another disk then from
there erase and bring it all back again and see what I get but apart
from the time involved I always see such operations as potentially
risky. As I have only a 19GB boot disk which is about half full the
loss of 0.5Gb or more is not useful.
Any comments welcome

If you lost $2 in the couch, would you spend an hour looking for it?
That's more than the 0.5Gb is worth, and about how much time it would
take you to copy everything off and back onto the drive.
Copying it off the drive onto a bigger drive would be much more worthwhile :)
Have fun,
Shay
