Hi, I hit this problem periodically when a lot of disk space is gone and it's hard to tell where did it go. Once it was thunderbird writing huge index file as a consequence of some bug, on another occasion it was the bug in KDE writing some huge index somewhere in ~/.kde4. Is there a tool slowly indexing the file system and showing where exactly did the sudden growth of consumed space occur? I know about du(1) but I am looking for some program that can detect the dynamics and pinpoint the offending files. Yuri
