450GB Cache

    My website was not monitored for a month and the cache grew excessively that my provider had contacted me.

    450GB cache on a small webshop with 50 products. 3Mil files.

    I couldn’t even delete the cache as WP FP was stalling and I had to completely uninstall it.

    I do have dozens of product tags which might contribute to many combinations of catalog pages. How can I limit the cache?

    which folder causes the issue?
    /wp-content/cache/all/ or /wp-content/cache/wpfc-minified/ or /wp-content/tmpWpfc/

    the latter tmpWpfc. But as I understand it is a temporary folder to where cache files are moved first when clearing the cache which I had attempted. Plugin crashed then and I was left with that folder.

    I had to ask my provider to remove it as it was too large for any file manager or ftp program.

    1. you can delete it via FTP.
    2. if the size of tmpWpfc folder increases, it means that you clear cache too often. you should stop doing it.

    1. This takes ages with 267000 folders in there.
    2. wrong. I have done NOTHING to my shop for a month and exactly that is why it has accumulated. I then tried to clear the cache and it was moved to the tmpwpfc folder. I assume WP FP has no limits and was creating more and more product tag page combination of my 226 Tags which amounts to an enourmous size of possible subpages.

    I need to find out which folder causes the issue in order to find a solution.

    /wp-content/cache/all/
    /wp-content/cache/wpfc-minified/
    /wp-content/tmpWpfc/

    You don’t need to write an essay. I’m asking a simple question. If you don’t answer, I can’t help you.

    Which folder causes the issue?

    /wp-content/cache/all/
    /wp-content/cache/wpfc-minified/
    /wp-content/tmpWpfc/

    If you don’t read replies It doesn’t help repeating questions.
