There is not currently a setting to restrict how long files exist in the cache folder, or a setting to restrict how large the cache folder may expand.

As a customer, I would like the ability to cap the maximum size the cache folder can reach. In scenarios with limited hard drive space, and/or problems that swell the cache folder beyond the expected range, being able to configure the maximum size of the cache folder would prevent bloating the hard drive.
At the moment it is not possible, to limit the cache size and the PrizmDoc Server does not handle the situation when no space is left on device.
On high load systems this leads to massive problems, a 50GB space hardisk for the cache directory is often not enough. In my opinion there is room for multiple improvements:

It is possible to restrict how long a file remain in cache. Please see the link above that details this and other caching strategies which include recommended best practices.
Let me know if you have questions.
