###command to mount:
s3fs nameofmys3buckett -o use_cache=/tmp -o allow_other -o uid=1001 -o mp_umask=002 -o multireq_max=5 /mys3bucket

Details about issue

I launched an EC2 instance with 100g storage and mount s3 to this EC2 with command above. Then I uploaded data like 100g to my s3 bucket. Thereafter I was told there is no more space on my ec2.
with df-h, I found /dev/xvda1 100G 99G 1.1G 99% /
but all those data are actually on my s3 bucket.
I guess there must be something wrong with my configuration. Please help!

I figure it out. Actually all data from s3 were copied to /tmp and that is why it is full.
It could be closed.
