    I’m using the plug-in, but I don’t understand what Cache Files Limit means. Currently, it says Cache Files Limit: X/50,000. However, it was 79,000/50,000, before I flushed the object cache. Should I not allow this to get over 50k? How do I raise the number?

    Let me know your thoughts and thank you for your time.

    Hi,

    Cache Files Limit means the maximum cache file Docket Cache can store on disk.

    X/50,000 means 50,000 is the maximum files and X is the current counted files. If X is greater than 50,000 it will cleanup by Garbage Collector.

    For example:
    79,000 / 50,000 -> 79000 – 50000 = 29000

    29000 total files will cleanup by Garbage Collector.

    Garbage Collector is a Cron Events that runs every 5 minutes, and WP Cron needs to run actively. Please refer to Cronbot -> CRON EVENTS -> Hook -> docketcache_gc.

    You can change the configuration by defining the DOCKET_CACHE_MAXFILE constant in wp-config.php, kindly refer to available documentation https://docs.docketcache.com/constants#docket_cache_maxfile

    You can run Garbage Collector manually by using Garbage Collector Action Button, by default disabled, enable it at Configuration -> ADMIN INTERFACE -> Garbage Collector Action Button. The Action Button will place on Overview -> ACTIONS.

    I hope this will answer your question.

    Thanks.

    Hi, Thank you for the info.

    So, I tried to run the garbage collection, but the number just stayed the same and it keeps going above 50,000. Further, I attempted to define in the wp-config to raise it to 100,000, but I received an error that it was already defined in wp-load line 37, which was this:

    /** The config file resides in ABSPATH */
    require_once ABSPATH . 'wp-config.php';

    Would the limit going over 50,000 slow the site down in any way or perhaps crash the server because I’ve been experiencing this lately. The plug-in speeds up the back end for a bit, but I have to manually purge the cache every few hours to lower that File Limit.

    Thanks again for the help.

    Hi,

    It seems like it already defined in wp-config.php.

    try put in wp-config.php

    Before:

    
    /* That's all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */
    

    After:

    
    !defined('DOCKET_CACHE_MAXFILE') && define('DOCKET_CACHE_MAXFILE', 100000);
    /* That's all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */
    

    And check it at Overview -> Cache Files Limit if any changes.

    Thanks.
