Hi List=0A=
=0A=
We have a FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #0 server running as a general unix shell serv=
er. Recently the system has been running at high load (average 8, and cpu 1=
00%), and even  more recently we've started  seeing the following types of =
error when we do cvs commits on the system. The system has between 150 to 2=
00 users on it during the day.=0A=

"/: write failed, filesystem is full"=0A=
Error: /tmp/file.commit.72971.tmp: No space left on device; /tmp/file.commi=
t.72971.tmp: WARNING: FILE TRUNCATED=0A=

The disks are definitely not full (this shows up in df -hi), both in terms =
of storage space and inode utilisation. However the cpu utilisation is perm=
anently at 100%, and we're aware of which processes are causing the utilisa=
tion. My question is: Is it possible,  under some circumstances that cpu st=
arvation could result in the type of "filesystem is full" errors we're seei=
ng above?=0A=

Thanks in Advance,=0A=
