I had this happen the other day over at Yiffit. Suddenly the hard drive was full.
Pictrs service is the problem. It's storing something on /tmp folder. I think it could be temporary cache of external instance images but not sure.
This is a temporary (backup?) file created by imagemagick when converting an image into another format. Create a Cron job to delete /tmp daily?
But these files should automatically deleted after the process finished. There is a buggy situation and cron job is not an ideal solution i think.
I'm actually not sure they are. When I was doing testing to see what makes some pictures not properly rotate, I also ended up with these files. Cron job isn't the solution to the problem, but ti will fix the symptoms.
Interesting. I increased memory for now and disk is not increasing right now. I will check later.
