Please help me, I have problem with really HUGE PMS directory.
I am using Plex on Ubuntu.
I have turned off video preview thumbnails generation and deleted it manually in each library
according to this article
Really, my PMS folder has 1 655 551 files! And Cache subfolder only has 39 143
The amount of files will depend on various factors – e.g. the amount of items in your library.
The support article linked in your OP lists most of them and what they’re used for. To be fair, having a 35 GB server data directory isn’t that shocking
35GB metadata but 1.6 MILLION items? Really it isn’t that shocking?
I am running rsync backup of my system drive and this is going horribly slow with that amount of files…
For example, I have installed also Emby and with same libraries and metadata, only 4 504 items, totalling 6,0 GB
