/var/run running out of space

[Krisbe]

Hi all

Since a few days, I'm having a problem with my system. The disk space of /var/run is running out of space …

2.3.1-RELEASE-p1 (amd64)
built on Wed May 25 14:53:06 CDT 2016
FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p3

Disk usage ( /var/run ) 108% of 3.4MiB - ufs in RAM

I already rebooted the system, but without the hoping result. Before 2.3.1-RELEASE-p1 I never had this problem.

Any ideas?

Thanks
