Hi,

The couchdb instance on chef-server is getting huge. I have to restart
it sometimes because its memory footprint keeps growing but the file
itself is becoming humongous:

 couchdb]$ ll -h
total 90G
-rw-r--r-- 1 couchdb couchdb  90G Sep  8 17:18 chef.couch
-rw-r--r-- 1 couchdb couchdb 3.7K Sep  8 17:18 couchdb.stderr
-rw-r--r-- 1 couchdb couchdb 9.7K Sep  8 17:18 couchdb.stdout

I don't have an exceptional setup, all opscode cookbooks + 15 of my
own, one of them contains a 35Mo file (yes I know, not ideal, I chose
the easy way). Still far from 90Go.

Any clue?
