[Seaside] Re: Help! ByteString is out of control

[Jason Rogers]

I got this code from Tom Phoenix off of the Squeak Dev list:

        tops := SortedCollection sortBlock: [:a :b | a size > b size].
        thresh := 10000.
        ByteString allInstancesDo: [:s |
                s size > thresh ifTrue: [
                        tops add: s.
                        [tops size > 10] whileTrue: [
                                thresh := tops last size.
                                tops remove: tops last. ]]].
        tops asArray inspect.

Sure enough the top 10 are OLD Seaside strings.  The top 5 are WAR
files that I have uploaded in the past and the last 5 are JavaScript
contents that are no longer being used.  So -- how do I get rid of
them?

"I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I,
but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in 
the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved 
me, and gave himself for me."
    Galatians 2:20
