Hi,

Actually, I was wrong, even if the program fatals, the destructor is still called and the tempfile should be removed. If the program was hard killed (server reboot, ulimit failure, perl seg fault), then that would leave a tmp file around.

Best bet is to view the tmp file to see where it's coming from. The 5 gig file could be from somebody using FileMan/MySQLMan in the admin area and either creating a .tar file of a large directory, or doing a very large sql dump.

Cheers,

Alex
