We have an OpenBSD 4.3-stable server that uses mfs for the "/tmp" partition (to increase speed with little temporary files).

After a lot of days of usage (currently 43) it results that the mfs partition is "used" for a large part, but there are almost no files there!


Here it is the "df" output:

Filesystem          1K-blocks      Used     Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd0a            30958980   4446936  24964096    15%    /
/dev/wd0e           261194190   3267932 244866550     1%    /var
mfs:4603               967503    401059    518069    44%    /tmp


And here it is the "ls -lR /tmp/" output:

As you can see, there aren't 400MB of files in the "/tmp" partition!

Is this a bug or a known problem of the "mfs" driver?


Thanks.
