 * Hej LS
 * I am buying Gigabyte after Gigabyte for my site, only to run out of memory a 
   week later. I came across [this minor detail….](https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/lscwp/ts-optimize/?_gl=1*5u39vf*_gcl_au*MTU5MTM4NDAyMC4xNzE3NDA5MDM2#disk-space-filling-fast)
 * First of all I wonder why this is not fixed from your side, since it is a known
   issue?
 * Anyways, trying to compare before I run out of memory again. I have no idea what
   my “code” to obstruct is…. I am using Chrome Incognito vs Safari

 * [and here the full compare](https://www.diffchecker.com/2XXoiIrP/)
 * Please advice, thank you

 * you need to narrow down if it’s JS or CSS
 * then open 2 similar sized file in /wp-content/litespeed/js or /css , compare 
   them

 * Memory is out of 7GB of memory at my host. It did this over the past month 3 
   times. Not ram, but the the memory of the site / disk.
   Yes I am sure

 * are you using something like cPanel ?
 * otherwise please contact with your provider and ask them to narrow down which
   dir is using the disk , then I will see what to do next.

   site have ?

 * I see you enable Woocomerce geo cache , do you actually need to any Geo function?
   like different price/tax based on user region ?

 * I use geocaching extensively. I operate within EU and need to tax per country.
   Also site is multivendor, so geo is used for optimised presentation in the vicinity.

 * well , then it got to use that much disk
 * let’s say your site has 500 pages, and imagine you geo it 30 countries, then 
   it will actually be 500 x 30 = 15000 caches files , let alone other conditions
   like webp vs no-webp , desktop vs mobile which will even further multiplies it
 * the way you use the geo , from Woocomerce setting could even use more disk , 
   perhaps you should ask your hosting provider to enable the GeoIP support for 
   you

 * Ok I see, so the cache is supposed to be large, but not expand on a daily basis
   extensively….
 * Maxmind. I installed this site clean as of nov. 2023, so I trust it is fair to
   assume I am on their 2nd gen.?
 * Are you then saying that this should be managed through Cpanel instead? I simply
   do not get the picture. That’s all.

 * okay , no , I checked a bit further , actually I think it doesn’t make much difference
   on disk usage in such case for where/how it geocache it
 * but the thing still remains , it will use such disk space if you geoip for so
   many countries

 * Thx for your time and assistance …. I don’t mind a large cache as long as it 
   does not build and build, and I do not think it does.
   I have deleted plugin –
   Regenerate Thumbnails. I heard from other source, that it is not supposed to 
   be installed and especially not for block themes. After deletion public html 
   dropped from 6GB to 3GB. I will investigate further on media generation by core
   WP / Perfect Images / lscache.
 * Will you recommend to leave webp and jpg generation off in lscache? since all
   of this is already performed by core and pretty image. I am not sure if rouns
   double images or actually checks if images already exist. I understand that WP
   Core does webp itself…?

 * the wp core supports webp image as directly uploading , it doesn’t do so in older
   version , this is newly uploaded image as webp already
 * what our plugin does is , convert your previous uploaded .jpg or png files , 
   to webp version
 * they are not exactly the same thing.
