partitian filling up, cocoon.dat over 500MB

ok, sort of off topic, but

while doing backups and checking partitian allocations, I found one of
my servers was about 96% on /usr/local . So, stepping through with 'df
-ks *' to find out where space was going, I did a 'cp /dev/null
mod_jk.log' which got about 250MB. Now I'm looking at cocoon.dat which
is around 500MB in cache_dir along with cocoon.idx . The partitian is
3G, so this is about 17%.

does anyone have any idea if these files can be zeroed out? it seems
like they are just cache files, and I don't know if they just keep
growing, but I do need to recover some more space in order to be
comfortable. since this is somewhat of a recurring problem with this
server, I would also like to cron the wiping of these files so that it
doesn't recur while I'm on vacation this summer.

TIA
