LiteSpeed Caching creates huge caching folder

    Hi, I use LiteSpeed caching on dozens of website I manage for my clients. On one website, I see something odd: the lscache folder is huge. Where the website itself takes up about 700MB, the lscache folder is 4,3GB.
    I’ve emptied the whole folder multiple times, but when the cache is built back up again, the 4+GB are back.
    The LearnDash/WooCommerce website has roughly 500 pages, nothing shocking I would say. And the uploads folder is about 350MB.
    On other websites I manage, the LScache folder doesn’t even exist.
    Am I doing something wrong in the setup, or is something going wrong?

    Checked again. It’s now at 2GB, still a lot I think. And caching for logged-in users is something we were planning on using. Do you have any other ideas that might help us find the cause?

    the conf looks alright to me

    you may need to keep digging on the access log , and if needed , add parameter like %{X-LiteSpeed-Cache}o to customize a bit the access log , this will log the cache status on each request.

    alternatively , you can also just set up a system cron job , to periodically or conditionally clean up the lscache
