Sounds fishy. Those files contain a nul-separated list of GC roots (store file names). Thus, a file in there is proportional to the number of ‘add-temp-root’ RPCs made by the client during the session. A client with a long-running session (‘guix publish’, Coordinator, Data Service, Cuirass, etc.) that regularly adds temp roots makes that file grow endlessly. HTH! Ludo’.
