how much mb of space of cache is appropiate for firefox,can anyone help me out?right now i have to 150.is that good?
If you have no HDD space issues then for most HDDs 150MB is small potatoes, the figure in the link (50MB) given by polonus seems reasonable.
A lot depends on how you use firefox do you have lots of tabs open and do you use dial-up or broadband (less requirement for a cache with a fast connection).
i use cable is that the same thing as broadband?and usually i only have like two or three tabs open at the same time
Cable is usually faster than broadband.
Where I live, it’s also more expensive.
My system has 1.75 terabytes in my case, cache size means absolutely nothing.
I also clean out the cache every time the system is restarted using CCleaner.
Yes it is, Cable can be faster than regular ADSL broadband.
Then I think you could drastically reduce it to probably even less than 50MB. Or clean out the cache periodically, I think you can even set firefox to clear the cache on shutdown.
Hi DavidR,
The method is to push Ctrl + Shift + Del at the end of the session, and run ClearProg at the end of the computer session. That at least is what I do. What is in the cache can be viewed with a program called MozillaCacheView from http://www.nirsoft.net (the link given to me by bob3160 - again thanks bob)

Me being a dial-up user I need all the help I can get ;D so I don’t delete the cache.
