1.2 Beta 3 Filling up Macintosh HD/cores with files

[dmuckala]

Hi, on a Macbook Pro 16" running Catalina/Logic--every time I have a server crash I'm getting HUGE core dump files...today i ran out of disk space (created almost 200GB of files) until I realized what was going on. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? I obviously can't risk this happening again. Great job on the latest update by the way...truly amazing.

AG server only keeps some latest log / dump files, shouldn't keep piling up anymore. At least, this is how it works on windows server. How many total dump files do you get? How far does it go back?

They all happened in a span of 15 minutes or so. It was while AG was scanning a bunch of plugins and kept crashing, probably in relation to a plugin it didn't like. Obviously if that hadn't happened, then the .core files wouldnt have happened either but it's a bad outcome nonetheless if an incompatible plugin is found and it happens again. This is on the latest version of AG by the way.

I deleted them but IIRC it was about 30 files ranging from around 3-8GB each.

I will add an option to turn off core dumps. The cleanup does not look at the scan files.
