 1. Remove all existent data:
 {{{
 rm -rf /home/humitos/.sugar/default/org.laptop.WebActivity
 }}}
  1. Open a new instance of Browse
  1. Check how much space it is using
 {{{
 $ du -hs /home/humitos/.sugar/default/org.laptop.WebActivity
 96K     /home/humitos/.sugar/default/org.laptop.WebActivity
 }}}
  1. Start downloading a big file. For example this one:
     * http://build.laptop.org/13.1.0/os4/xo-1.75/31004o2.zd
  1. After a couple of minutes (depending on your internet connection) go
 to the Journal and cancel the download
  1. Check the space that Browse is using again
 {{{
 $ du -hs /home/humitos/.sugar/default/org.laptop.WebActivity
 13M     /home/humitos/.sugar/default/org.laptop.WebActivity
 }}}

 This space is never free...
