<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It should probably be alright, as long as you don't
try to run a virus scan over it, or something. You're probably best off deleting
the files automatically using a process started every day. There should be quite
a bit of documentation on that (and previous e-mails to the list). Let me know
if you can't figure it out.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>To give you some idea, our servers often has 10s of
thousands of files, and you don't notice any change in performance. Other users
probably have millions.</FONT></DIV>

[UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] will a lot of temp files harm hard disk performance?</DIV>

<DIV><BR>Hi!<BR>Use mapserver will leave a lot of temp files in the file system.
What's more they are saved at the same directory.<BR>I wonder whether this
design will make hard disk low performance?<BR>Any idea?<BR></FONT></DIV>
