With 70% we mostly start expiring soon enough.) The comments should read: minFilesFreePercent xx : start expire when more than xx% of inodes are in use, and do not stop expiring until below xx% minBlocksFreePercent xx : start expire when more than xx% of blocks are in use, and do not stop expiring until below xx% > Jan 3 22:02:23 newsreader2 nntpcache-expire[5066]: expire.c:212: > usedblocks = 8.5%, usedinodes = 0.1%, maxArtAge = 57s, expire ended This shows you that expire finally stops on the failsafe feature: don't try to expire articles that are only one minute old.
