Feature request: qutebrowser (2) #160

Closed csantosb closed 8 years ago

csantosb commented 8 years ago

Following #105, I have noticed that qutebrowser is using ~/.cache/qutebrowseras its default cache. After a few days using it, I get around ~ 50 MB of data.

man psd

*Note that some browsers such as Chrome/Chromium, Firefox (since v21), Midori, and Rekonq actually keeps their cache directories separately from their browser profile directory. It is not within the scope of profile-sync-daemon to modify this behavior; users wishing to relocate this directory, may refer to the following url for several work-arounds: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Chromium_Tips_and_Tweaks#Cache_in_tmpfs

Yes, you're right, the --cachedir flag deals with this case.
