We have been seeing something similar on Windows. Where there are lots of zeo-cache files + .tbufs lying around. This does not happen all the time. I was presuming it had something to do with signal handling/windows/tempfile. We have not found a way to reproduce the problem but have seen it at several customer environments. -alan _______________________________________________ For more information about ZODB, see the ZODB Wiki: http://www.zope.org/Wikis/ZODB/ ZODB-Dev mailing list - ZODB-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zodb-dev
