Override automatic cache option disabled?

Post by back2themoon » 2015-02-15, 12:51

I've recently noticed in the 3 PC's I use that the "Override automatic cache management (Limit cache to 250 MB...)" option has been unchecked/disabled without me touching it. I think the enabled status is the Pale Moon default. Maybe a recent update didn't enforce this?

The override status is no longer enforced as a default (that was a leftover from sticking closer to Firefox and needing to override the settings of it) - with redoing the cache handling, I disabled the override to have automatic handling take over.
So, this change of default was by design (and it will use a similarly conservative default for automatic) - you can go back to overriding the default if you prefer, though.
