I have been monitoring the difference between df [Used storage on /var mount point] and du /var The difference in result is fine, but the difference is growing. That is, more and more of /var is being Used according to df, which apparently shows the correct amount as it monitors the fs. du is not telling me where the leakage is occuring. I assume if one can find the process that is doing this then the process can be killed, freeing the space again from the fs.
