If the log files aren’t cleaned up, you’ll hit this issue even if you don’t run it 30k times in a minute. I ran into a very similar problem with pytest (python) creating sequentially numbered temp dir/files under /tmp on linux. Result: full / partition.

My version of this - OS (Linux) crashes due to overclock stability testing filled EFI NVRAM, and I had to manually delete the crash dumps after running into puzzling issues later on. Apparently it was possible (on some hardware, at least) for the automatic dumps to brick your computer: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=919485
