    My wordpress just automatically created 16GB of core.000 files on my server, which is a huge problem for me. Is there any way to permanently stop wordpress from creating these files? Thanks for the feedback.

    Yeah I am sure. Some how 122 files showed up each around 98MB in size. They were named like core.202, core.1023, core.1039 etc.. not in sequence. It happened before and I am not sure what causes it. I installed a plugin called Core Control and it showed like 50 cron tasks so I deleted them all using myphpadmin and then wordpress added back the usual cron tasks itself. Hopefully that fixes this problem.

    I’m pretty sure that plugin doesn’t have anything to do with those files. Also pretty sure WordPress itself doesn’t make those files. I think those files are core dumps generated by your server; you should probably ask your web host about them.
