It should not be creating a new folder with the name of your application --
rather, it should be storing the cache files inside the /cache folder that
already exists inside your application folder. Do you have a reason for not
wanting the files there? Note, it is not storing JSON files, but rather
pickling Python objects.
If you really want to change the cache location, you can do the following
(must be placed before the first time you call cache.disk -- so preferably
early in the first model file):
import os
cache.disk.folder = os.path.join('your', 'path')
In that case, it will create the folder /your/path/cache (there's no way to
prevent it from creating a final "cache" subfolder without some more
involved hacking).
