[xwiki-users] Tomcat xwiki-temp directory and slow startup times

Hi, I have a question about Tomcat's "xwiki-temp" directory causing substantial slowdowns at startup. I am running XWiki 4.2 on Tomcat (on Windows Server 2008 R2). I was noticing very lengthy startup times (easily an hour or more), and finally tracked the source of the problem to the "xwiki-temp" Tomcat directory: \Tomcat\work\Catalina\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\xwiki\xwiki-temp This directory has tens of thousands of identical files, and appears to not be cleared between Tomcat restarts. After a week it's at about 70,000 files and 500MB. Deleting the contents of this directory immediately remedied my slow startup times, but over time the directory fills back up and needs to be cleared out again. The majority of the directory is filled with subdirectories with alphanumeric codes, like: G6mHPTWL kJar6JFZ The contents of each subfolder is identical, with two more subfolders: /attachment - this contains 2 PNG files: xwiki.ColorThemes.DefaultColorTheme.header.png xwiki.ColorThemes.DefaultColorTheme.logo.png /skins - this contains a number of other subdirectories for the colibri skin, all with css files from the skin. I understand this is likely a Tomcat problem more than an XWiki problem per se, but am hoping someone else out there has seen it before and has an idea what's going on or how to fix it. thanks, Aaron
