What’s up with resource.dir and resource.pag in /tmp? – Apache-2.2 related.

So after my successful upgrade to Apache-2.2, I’m seeing these two zero length files in /tmp

-rw-r—– 1 apache apache 0 Sep 23 03:52 resource.dir
-rw-r—– 1 apache apache 0 Sep 23 03:52 resource.pag

Not sure what these are about, and they appear nightly if I delete them. So definitely not related to Apache service restart.

I posted this on the Gentoo forum, but haven’t heard anything back. I sure miss the days when you’d get responses almost within minutes of posting.

If anyone has some info, let me know. I know it’s not bad, but would just like to understand what’s going on.
