I am not quite sure how to approach this but I see if I can break it down:

I’ve get an old Macbook (early 2011, 8gb of RAM, 200gb SSD startup disk) and run Max on that startup disk. Yesterday morning I had about 15gb free space on my disk, but after a day of Maxing my space has decreased to 200mb — a point where iOS is giving me grief that my Startup Disk is full.

My patch is a bunch of gl gridshapes that get textures from jit.movies (a handful of files in 720 x 405, MotionJPG A) and that I perform some transformations on such as scaling and rotating, and some slab processing. These transformations happen to an audio feed (peakamp~and reson~).

My question is if there is a way this can write into a cache or something comparable and, if so, how I empty that. At the moment, I am entirely unsure whether this is a Max situation to begin with but I am curious to find out what is eating up all my disk space.

But You should check support folder where max writes temp files and delete

I don't use Max 7 frequently, and don't know if it is compatible with

That could mean storing unnecessary temporay files in .DocumentRevisions-V100

It is another nonesense apple introduced into OS.

Not sure that is has to be Max.

I don't use Max 7 frequently, and don't know if it is compatible with

Is Max writing disk files?
