# rrdtool-1.7.2nb1     Data analysis tool generating graphical representations
via pkgin
http://nyftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/8.1/All


>Description:

generating png files with rrdtool is creating a large number of files in
/var/cache/fontconfig

for example generatig 63 png files from 26 rrd files creates 387 cache files, everytime

here is an example

find /var/cache/fontconfig -type f -delete
while :; do date ; sh ./rrd-cpu.sh graph && find /var/cache/fontconfig/ -type f | wc -l ; done

here is a profile of the files from earlier runs

/usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts/util

I have a 700K ktrace file from an "rrdtool graph ..." command
it indicates the cache file creations, but no obvious problem.
Shall I attach it somewhere?


>How-To-Repeat:

after NB 8.1 pkgin install of rrdtool 
these scripts were used to generate the rrd tables, update db and graph...
https://github.com/georgalis/pub/tree/706187e6f706775a7813b62e688480ee89676cb9/sub/metric
edit rr= and htrr= parameters,
then run "sh rrd-cpu.sh gen | sh"
set "sh rrd-cpu.sh db" in crontab, every minute
"sh rrd-cpu.sh graph" to render the plots, and a bunch of
/var/cache/fontconfig files.



>Fix:

not sure, it looks like a fontconfig hash is not being consistant when it should
