asitop_powermetrics occupying 20gbs in SSD #35

Hi there,

Been using asitop for a few months, but in the last couple of weeks the asitop_powermetrics file located in private>temp was using a lot of space. I uninstalled asitop and deleted the file but I fear the same thing will happen again soon. Do you guys know what could be causing it and how to avoid my ssd being eaten by this temp file?

Sorry about that, the temp file is supposed to be purged on every startup and exit. If that doesn’t work, you can manually delete the file.
