Cache contents necessary?
I was just getting ready to backup my system when I noticed that there is a large quantity of data in the cache folder. Since I have resolved any outstanding downloads I was wondering what useful benefit was gained by retaining the cache contents. I would just as soon delete these files prior to backup to minimize the time and storage space required. Is there any problem with deleting these files?
Re: Cache contents necessary?
When your queue is empty you can remove all files starting with "SABnzbd_".
There can be considerable leakage in the cache folder
(especially when you often delete jobs after they started).
We will resolve that problem in the next major release.
