Ok what was the exact version of LMS you are running ? you can find out
from the info page in settings in the web-UI

My cache size for 37000 music files is "1,743 items, totalling 2.4 GB"
and 1.8 GB is my spotify cache as i use triodes plugin so *my real cache
is only 0.6GB
*
I assume that you do let LMS scan for photos and videos ? I don't even
have a folder named FileCache .
But I have disable all photo and video scanning

Maybe mherger can answer what FileCache do ,thats a clue for sure !!

Btw are you using any plugin like trackstat or any other of erlands
plugins if so you can set their cache directories from the web-UI for
example the trackstat plugin does backups reguraly and they are big .
But the plugi lets you store this stuff elsewhere .

The actual database are these files named *.db

for example artwork.db ,library.db ,persist.db
