According to your log, many tiny checkpoints were created around 2010-02-09 20:30:01 ~ 2010-02-09 20:31:00. I saw the dump data of the segment 343 to see the logs having checkpoints on "20:30:01", but they looked normal to me. The series of checkpoints after 1844624 seems to need care as you say. 1844624 2010-02-09 20:30:59 cp - 55 16621 1844625 2010-02-09 20:30:59 cp - 33 16621 1844626 2010-02-09 20:30:59 cp - 33 16621 1844627 2010-02-09 20:30:59 cp - 34 16621 1844628 2010-02-09 20:30:59 cp - 33 16621 1844629 2010-02-09 20:30:59 cp - 33 16621 1844630 2010-02-09 20:30:59 cp - 33 16621 But, it was not included in the segment 343 but in the segment 344. Checkpoints can be created when application performs synchronous writes (e.g. fsync or OSYNC writes). So, we needs an additional dumpseg data to confirm if it's normal or not. Can you still take out the dump ? In addition, I think "ls -laiR" for the var directory would be helpful because it prints inode numbers along with file names.
