 * Like this thread (link below) I just discover that I had 520K avatar images which
   should NOT be happening given the no of users etc. There is a serious bug with
   the gravatar cache. I’ve now disabled it.

 * [@nisiwi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nisiwi/) please go to LiteSpeed
   Cache -> Page Optimation -> Localization -> Gravatar Cache = OFF , then purge
   all.
   By default this setting is OFF, but is turned ON when applying preset ADVANCED
   and over.
