A place to discuss the news and latest developments on the open-source browser Firefox
Thanks. This spurred some research and I decided to disable the disk cache entirely instead:
Seems an easy way to avoid the SSD churn and syncing issues, since today's fast internet connections make disk caching less useful. That may be wrong but so far it seems as fast as ever.
Interesting, yes. By which you mean fiddling with
/etc/fstab
to mount atmpfs
partition and pointing the cache directory at that ? Any pros and cons you know about?Anyway, after a bit of browsing I really cannot detect any performance difference since disabling caching. So seems a good deal so far. I wish Firefox had a simple on-off switch instead of needing a bunch of config tweaks to do this.
Thanks, useful tips.
Done. 24 hours ago but still awaiting moderation! I didn't know about this forum. Unfortunately they are obviously snowed under by feature requests, many of them unmerged duplicates. So not expecting much, alas.
