This is not a psd thing, it's a chromium thing. I do not like chromium caching to my disk. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ch … e_in_tmpfs
If you want to do this, recommend you:
1) stop psd
2) close chromium
3) backup your profile just in case you screw up something
4) Impliment the wiki's suggestion I linked
5) optionally manually delete the cached items outside of that scope
For example, I routinely delete:
~/.config/chromium/Service\ Worker/CacheStorage/*
~/.config/chromium/GPUCache/*6) restart psd
Well on the other hand I don't have 3GB of spare RAM to cache all the Application Cache (which is what is taking up most of the space)... though choice. Thanks anyway.

You don't need to relocate all application cache to tmpfs, you can do it just for your browser. See the link.

Thanks, I know that. However, my chromium Application Cache folder is 3GB (no idea why it is that large). I do not mean the cache for all system applications!

been trying to get psd working but after installing and running psd and editing the config file... I launch the daemon with systemctl --user start psd and it fails:
Job for psd.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl --user status psd.service" and "journalctl --user -xe" for details.

Do you have firefox running? Close it before starting psd.

Thank you for this great contribution.
I wonder if I could misuse the tool to achieve a secondary sync via network.
My goal is to have several browsers ,*chrome,chromium, firefox, firefox-dev in sync on 2 machines ,*arch and macos, at home.
Would this be possible in theory?
The browser sync services do not suffice as these miss many settings especially regarding the browser profiles and extension profiles.
best
