Okay this is really bothering me. Why is my portage tree so much bigger than my server's? My friend's is awfully large too, though not as big as mine.
Ok here's my server, ChuckNorris:
| Code: |
feld@ChuckNorris ~ $ df -ah
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdb3 5.6G 1.1G 4.6G 19% /
proc 0 0 0 - /proc

shm 252M 0 252M 0% /dev/shm
usbfs 0 0 0 - /proc/bus/usb

Distfiles is mounted AFTER portage, into a dir made onto portage. So that's correct.
Notice it is only using 189mb for a fully up to date portage tree on Reiserfs (notail,noatime).
Now here is my box. Same situation for portage and distfiles. Same filesystem. Same scheme. yadda yadda. (I've also made sure that with distfiles unmounted that there really REALLY is nothing in the distfiles folder it's being mounted onto.)
| Code: |
skeletor ~ # df -h

/dev/hdd3 37G 23G 14G 62% /
udev 1014M 244K 1013M 1% /dev

/dev/mapper/vg-distfiles

Now what the hell? It's using 532 MB!!!!!!
I was forced to expand the LV to 1000MB because 500 wasn't cutting it. Every sync would fail because it would run out of space, every extraction of a snapshot would error out because it had no more space.
ARGH this is annoying....
My box: xp 3200
Server: Dual P3 866
Any ideas? I'm totally lost.
Here's a pastebin of the dir sizes:

Am I crazy? Is my server crazy? Who's wrong and who's right here?

Moved from Off the Wall to Gentoo Chat.
If it's getting big then clean it out: delete it and emerge --sync .

I just rm -rf /usr/portage/*, then emerge --sync.
/usr/portage went from 581M to 568M
I guess that's what happens when you have 137654 files in a directory tree. |
