Something I noticed as I was transfering an account from one server to another that happened to be about 1 GB large, it caused some problems for me that were easily fixed but prevented me from transfering the account. So I figured I would ask and see if my theory is true.

When transfering accounts the /tmp direcorty is used to moce the whole account there before sending to the new server, correct? If so does this mean I will need to increase the size of my /tmp directory to ensure everything is large enough to handle the transfer?

Thanks to anyone who replies.
