Tip for Notes 8 Beta users: loosing disk space?

Today I received a great tip via Richard Moore who ran into the same problem… We noticed free disk space was going away (rapidly)… but couldn’t figure out why – and I wasn’t creating enough presentations / reports / spreadsheets to justify the loss ;-)

Turns out Notes 8 has been capturing core dumps… and they take up a lot of space (5GB in my case). Just delete everything in the logs directory to get the space back (~/IBM/RCP/[id]/[user]/logs/*)
