The more cache the faster the application. How much cache usage would be acceptable?
Hey nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s when you get some time, could you take a look at the amount of storage nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 is using?
This is after I cleared the cache:

I see it differently. I care less how big the cache is, I care more that when I clear it down it doesn’t trend to zero, but instead reduces by around 25%
It was about 7.5GB before I cleared it from the app.
Also when I’ve deleted the app and reloaded it. With a near zero cache size I don’t see a dramatic performance degradation.
I appreciate Damus has a pseudo relay built in, so I understand the cache reflects this, but even so 8GB for a cache is enormous!
How much cache would be acceptable?
I’m not certain we have concord.
That’s like a painter asking how many pots of paint I’d like to paint my house with.
The cache size is self determining and a secondary issue to the two points I’ve raised:
1. Clearing the cache doesn’t do what it says.
2. The cache size doesn’t noticeably change the app’s performance significantly as far as I can test.
This is interesting and has been mentioned as a problem for multiple nostr apps. I will look into it for fun 🕺🕺
I wonder whether android supports user defined cache. Then each user could configure a maximum that suits them.
#Amethyst has also infrequent issues with bloated cache/data.
