BridgeDB should stop creating assignment files
The metrics server is no longer processing them, and they are also no longer being rsynced to the metrics server, so BridgeDB should stop wasting its energy to create them. There is a crontab entry somewhere, which, I believe, sends a SIGUSR1 signal to the BridgeDB process; this crontab entry should be removed, and the new crontab re-uploaded to the bridgedb-admin.git repo.
