Normally there are things located as 'php session files', .sock files, en some tmp files/dirs.

Please do 'du -hs /tmp' to see how much is used.

By definition, anything in /tmp can be removed; in fact some distributions remove the contents of /tmp at every reboot.

However, if you delete session files and the sessions are still in use, those sessions will be closed, perhaps without being cleaned up properly.
