GUI Task Manager File List has many duplicates and is very slow

Description
Though we see only a single entry for each file in ./xxx50/print directory on the server, the GUI Task Manager File List in the Circulation client shows file names duplicated - some of the files show 11 times. And it's extremely slow in producing the display.
Resolution
This can be the result of the ./print directory on the server being too big. Do this to check:
> dlib xxx50
> dp
> du -sh
In this instance, the ./print directory had 13 Gig of files. Cleaning it up corrected the problem.
Note: If the problem occurs with the Circ or Acq client, then the xxx50 print directory is the culprit; if it occurs in Cataloging, then it's the xxx01 print directory.
