Cache size invasive. #310

Open OldNick opened 1 year ago

OldNick commented 1 year ago

The folder .lzncache is almost 5GB - more than the cache and configuration files of all my other apps together - and taking up 25% of my /home partition.

Is there a way to limit this?

And what happens if I wipe it?

@OldNick It looks like its a manual control, where you have to Clear the cache yourself when you want to. Try Edit/Preferences, scroll down to Browser Cache, mouse over the "Clear" button" for further instructions about where cache can and is residing. You don't lose anything if you clear it. It will just have to render the edits you previously made before opening the image back up.
