What cache size is normal?

Post by Henni100 » Fri Mar 04, 2011 6:10 pm

After restart of the server (6.0.31RC6 on Linkstation) and finished scan my cache memory is 4173 KB in size. Doing nothing in the meantime this value massivly increases from day to day without having added new items to the database.
At this moment after 24 hours my cache size is 217081 KB and tomorrow it will be 400000 KB.
I have around 5000 mp3 tracks, 3000 fotos, and 10 video films in the data base.

Is that normal?

Greetings Henni

I cant say what is normal, but it does appear to be a "possible" memory leak/creep

If have been running previous versions of twonky
what was the average cache size on those versions (which is based on the amount of media in your library/activity)
say for ex: version 6.0.1 it was a stable 1234
say for ex: version 6.0.2 it was a stable 1357
and when going to say for ex: version 6.0.3 it does what you are seeing
then that would not be normal
this is how I define normal cache for me, based on how the previous versions operated

I know this isn't the answer you were looking for, but maybe it will help define what it is normal cache for your server,
as each persons library is different
