Hi, i found that free spaces of rootfs is recently increasing little by little by itself. I didn't do anything, but found it increased from 52M to 54M, then 58M, 62M, now it is 67.2MB free. Does anyone know what happened? I'm happy to see this, but also a little bit worried if it is a bug that my n900 is deleting something by itself, although i haven't encountered any problem yet.

Don't worry about it, they are probably temporary files or other advanced mumbo-jumbo.

This is related to how the UBIFS frees up space, I believe. It happens on reboot. Also, I think the icon cache temporary file gets large and takes up space and that gets freed too on reboot.
