Hi *

one of the causes of the increased load we put on the Fry hosting
infrastructure is that some of our VMs have way too many (small) files
in them. [*] In particular CKAN session dirs collect >10 million files
because CKAN doesn't clean up after itself.

Please observe

  http://trac.ckan.org/ticket/1447
  http://trac.okfn.org/ticket/1222

/nils.


[*] Fry uses file-based backup, host migration and virtualisation, as
opposed to image-based.
