Disk Space Issue – Fix in Help Article Not Working

    Hello! The site I’m working with is having a disk space issue – the lscache folder is accumulating files at a rate of about 1GB per day; I’ve been manually deleting them via FTP each day to keep the site from going over its limit.

    I tried to follow the steps here – https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/lscwp/ts-optimize/#disk-space-filling-fast – but when I pull the page source from two different browsers and compare them, they don’t have differences like the example posted, the only differences are the timestamps.

    Any suggestions about what else I could look into in order to fix this would be much appreciated, thank you!

    On our hosting the lscache folder is in the account’s root directory. The site has 48 pages and 65 posts. You can view our server’s usage stats here for information on the traffic: https://xia.com/stats/

    I’m sorry, I’m not really certain what to look for in the access log – I saved what was in the access log, here’s a link to it, so you can see if there’s anything useful there. https://testing.slamdotcloud.com/wp-content/uploads/accesslog.txt

    hm , log looks only contains very few requests

    I was kind of hoping to see the access log with request URI that contains with a lot of query string, that is a typical reason for huge lscache dir

    please try this: clean up the lscache dir as remove everything inside of it , mark the time , clean up the access log or mark a flag of timing , wait for 24 hours , grab the access log on past 24 hours and size of lscache.

    Okay, yesterday I removed everything in the lscache directory at about 2pm. Today around the same time I checked and the directory size is up to 6.31GB. Here’s an updated access log: https://testing.slamdotcloud.com/wp-content/uploads/access_log.txt

    Yes, we use DirectAdmin and yes, this account only has one site.
