Some time ago there was a discussion about System files which grew to huge
sizes seemingly without cause.

Well, we've got a couple of Mac II's that have had this happen recently.
We've already replaced the files, but I don't remember what causes this
problem.  Could someone mail me the details along with any suggestions you
have to avoid this happening again?
