Good sleuthing! Pretty crappy algorithm that allows a cache to grow without bounds.
The skins that come with WeeWX (Seasons, Standard) use static source template files. They are always the same.

Does the Belchertown skin do things differently? -tk On Sun, Jun 25, 2023 at 8:46 AM [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > In my experimental skin I was running into this issue, so I decided to > delve into Cheetah’s internals and learned the following.
