Hello -

Need some help; off late, system data is eating away all the disk space, so much so that mac reports less than 2 GB free.
and then after few minutes recovers 10 to 12 GB and this has been happening entire day.

When i restart, i see about 40 GB free and then that disappears in few minutes and ranges between 2 GB to 15 GB.

I am not sure what is taking away that space or what process is causing this. Anyone else who has observed this and if there are any fixes to recover the empty space back.

thanks,

moved away from pubiic beta to latest dev beta and that seems to have put a check for now, observed it for more than 12 hours now, seems to be lot stable and not chewing up all the free space.
 
oh.. so far from last 24 hours after the update, it seems to have settled down..no more disk space issues so far
