Hi! I tryed frost and it seems to work. So I entusiastically shared something as 8.5-9GiB of various files (music); without knowing the risk of what I was doing!!! Fortunately, I frequently check the diskspace... having started frost, the free-memory begun to fall, and fall... So I stopped frost to check what was going on. I discovered the keypool directory: here I seen hundreds of files, named .checkblocks, that were continuously generated by frost. One every my shared file... and approximately 50& of original dimension. This is absurd. To share 10 Gib I should have 5GiB of freespace...!!! Couldn't these files be created only when the original file is requested???! ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
