Re: Disk increase with MAD and MAI extension files in tmp dir

 

Hi, Kevin!

When did it start?

Did you, for example, upgrade from 10.3.13 to 10.3.14 and then noticed
it? (I'm not saying this is a known bug in 10.3.14, it was just an example)

What filesystem is it?

And, don't forget, if it looks like a bug to you, report it at
jira.mariadb.org to get it fixed
