Hack of the day: running
⤋ Read More
watch -n 60 rm -rf /tmp/yarn-avatar-*
in a tmux
because all of a sudden, without warning, yarnd
started throwing hundreds of gigabytes of files with names like yarn-avatar-62582554
into /tmp
, which filled up the entire disk and started crashing other services.
@prologic@twtxt.net I’m still getting this crap:
abucci@buc:~/yarnd/yarn$ ls -lh /tmp/yarnd-avatar-*

Something like 100 Gbytes of this junk has accumulated since I updated and re-started the server. I’m now running the latest version of yarnd
, so the update did not fix the problem. Something else is going wrong.
How are temporary files growing to 10 Gbytes in size? The name of the file is “yarn-avatar”, but why would avatars be so large?
