Thanks Michael. I was afraid of that. Looks like I was a bit stingy when I selected the size of my root partition... If you store the artwork files in a folder and configure the plugin to use that folder, MAI won't have to re-download the files and will not cache them in the regular

I've got a situation where my cache.db seems to be blowing up to a much larger size than usual. It's currently at 273MB. Looking at the log file I am seeing the following warning message which I am thinking could be related to the issue: [17-02-07 03:01:12.7177] Slim::Music::Import::runImporter

Last night cache.db was 47MB. This morning it is 704MB and all I have done is listen to BBC Radio 2 via the BBC iplayer plugin. I am watching it rise as I write this 718MB now. Now you could uninstall that plugin, wipe the cache, and try again. If behaviour is back to normal, then you know the

No I didn't check the Server log. My cache.db is 47MB now, I will keep an eye on it over time. Even 47MB seems high compared to 15MB. As I said: this heavily depends on your use of plugins and internet services. Some information about them might help to understand the issue. -- Michael

I know this is an old thread but somehow I ended up with a cache.db file of over 1GB and a cache.db-wal file of over 500MB running the latest LMS 7.9. I thought those days were long gone. The size of cache.db doesn't depend on artwork (there's artwork.db and imageproxy.db for that). It's used

Hm, then I'd expect it to not grow beyond 500-600MB --- learn more about iPeng, the iPhone and iPad remote for the Squeezebox and Logitech UE Smart Radio as well as iPeng Party, the free Party-App, at penguinlovesmusic.com *New: iPeng 9, the Universal App for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch*

Not at all. If your library is large enough... IIRC some newer LMS versions actually even put the full-scale artwork into the cache dbs so it can easily grow that big. Which control Apps do you use? iPeng now pretty much tries to optimize cache space use (except for iPad 2 iPeng 9 now uses the
