May be the logs.  If the logs are adding a lot of info the space used grows.
Also, if not configured to properly purge older logs out the space grows.
Check the space used there.

BTW, 1.2GB is tiny for a busy system.  You could easily add another small
drive and put the spool and log trees on the other drive.  That would
prevent the growth of log space or spooling space from interfering with
system operation.

> I have drake 7.2 installed and I started with 850 meg installed size, in
two months it has grown to 1.2 gig, what is exploding in the background, and
how do I find what is newly added.  1.2 gig is the size of the hard drive
and I am at 100%.  I tried to install the star office I bought at the
saturday sale, and I got could not create /tmp/..... so I did a chmod to 777
thinking that as /mike, it could not get permission.  No change, then I did
a df,  OOPS  hdb1 100% usage!   OK, what is the fattening?  What can I axe.
THe only thing I can think that added was I did a 'builddb' right after I
installed it, but that is only a meg or two.
