Hello,

im not closing my Firefox, im just sleep my computer. I want to save network and CPU so i set disk cache to be 800Mb. I started using Firefox yesterday. Just want to ask how i delete cached files that was not accessed in last example 5 days, so they do not eat space? Any plugin that allows automatic pruning of cache folder based on frequency of access to the cached contents or such please? As an amateur user i think it would be handy for me to set some treshold after which if cache element is not used, is removed.

Thx

To access the fetch count, about:cache in a new window will show all the entries. However I could not find an add on that delete entries based on the number of times it was accessed only the recorded history over a period of time.

However if you are familiar with sqlite it is possible to edit the places.sqlite file with the add on SQLite Manager. It might be a customized alternative.
