Or sbdy deleted a file in the fs while a process still writes to it. Such a
deleted file would be invisible but nonetheless grow and use up space as
long as the process writes to it. Use fuser or lsof to find out which
processes access fs in question. Kill those old processes if possible.
Make sure your /tmp fs does not fill completely as otherwise your system
might behave strange ;-)
