[SOLVED] /tmp separate from root?

Hi guys!

These days I was noticing that my /tmp has 31 GB of space. But as far as I remember I didn't create a separate temp. Then I went to see if there was anything related to the assembly, and there wasn't.

Basically my structure is this:

 /dev/nvme0n1p1                                                                       2048                                     1048575                                     1046528                                     511M Sistema EFI                                                 
Espaço livre                                                                          1048576                                     1050623                                        2048                                       1M
/dev/nvme0n1p2                                                                    1050624                                    41943039                                    40892416                                 19,5G Linux sistema de arquivos
/dev/nvme0n1p3  

Has anyone noticed this? Can you tell me if this /tmp comes from /home?

/tmp is tmpfs by default, and has been for a very long time. It defaults to half of your RAM.

Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
