error loggers gone crazy - disk full
last night my system ground to a halt with a full disk. looking at the logs, i
discovered that they were the main if not the only resource hogs. (haven't
looked for other sources of spurious disk usage). below is a sample
of 'debug'. 'kern.log' and 'syslog' have the same messages. you can tell by
the time stamps that something is going wild in my system.
