Post by thalantis »

after downloading for a while the cache folder is fill with 10 gigabyte or more cache files and the download slows down to a crawl
when i start sabnzbd with the option -c to clean everything and i start downloading again its at full speed.

0.5.x has several cache "leaks".
Not clearing the cache when deleting half-downloaded NZBs from the queue is one.
Left-over articles when jobs are moved from the queue to post-postprocessing is another.
The slowness is due to the filesystem having problems with large folders.
Release 0.6.0 will finally solve this issue.
