If you were running it as root from your /root directory check
/root for a large core file.

Be sure to look in /tmp.
Also you might use du on anything mounted on root.
lsof might help.
If your program opened a temporary file and then removed the file,
the file could still be open using memory and disk space as it is
not removed until the last link is removed, so you might not find
that file at all.
You will have problems as any non-root program that need to write
in /tmp will probably fail.
