makefile quickly results in No space left on device

I stopped using eclipse exporter, and opted instead to use the makefile to deploy my roku app. deploy get's slower and slower each time then eventually fails with the message "No space left on device".

I then need to turn off/on..

wth is this about?

This has been my experience over the past few months (?) just manually zipping and side-loading, slower and slower until inevitably "no space on device" error, need to do "system restart".

Re: makefile quickly results in No space left on device

yep. exactly the same here - in my case it was worse because I didn't have the correct excludes so the zip was bigger and had zip files in it.

I'm also noticing that it does it way more (almost every time), if sideloading while the app is in a breakpoint, especially on another thread
trying to remember to q out the console before I start off another build 🙂

I hadn't been experiencing this while developing on an Ultra but today I'm working on a Roku 3 and running into this issue.

Re: makefile quickly results in No space left on device

I got the same issue using sublime text exporter. Developing on Roku Express... had to restart the system but I would like to try using makefile to deploy.

Re: makefile quickly results in No space left on device

BTW, I've adopted the habit of first deleting the existing channel, then sideloading the new version, and I haven't had the issue ever again. It's possible the issue was fixed via firmware and my actions are only coincidental, but it made sense to me that it would help.
