I have a 4.11 server with 4 volumes - one volume is used for testing only the other are production.  The test volume is 12-Gig with 1-Gig free.  The other volumes each have at least 3-Gig free.
A developer is testing an application and for some reason it eats up the free space on the test vol at a clip of 100Mb/sec until the volume is out of space and the server crashes.  When he runs the same app on any of the other volumes the app performs exceptionally.  The app finishes in seconds and the max drive space used is negligible.

Another issue with the test volume is if we break out of the app it does not release the disk until after the user logins again.

I deleted the volume, recreated it, then restored the data but the same problem exists.

Is this a virtual memory problem?
Is virtual memory in Netware specific to each volume.
Should we upgrade memory, HDD, application?

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
