Issue
The original Disk Usage plugin offers many features, however it consumes many resources and in some instances can prevent the Jenkins controller from operating correctly.
Environment

Resolution
If your controller is running on an Unix based system, stop using the Disk Usage Plugin and use the CloudBees Simple Disk Usage Plugin instead which offers less options but is performances oriented. This plugin won’t work on a controller running on Windows.
