Hi We noticed that some firedrake users on the Imperial clusters have a large ( between 0.5 M and 1.3M) numbers of files in their cache (usually in firedrake/.cache/pyop2) . Is this cache size configurable? If so can you let people know how to limit it. It has two bad effects; firstly no filesystem is happy with that many files in a single directory and it will slow things down to the point it is useless as cache. Also each user is limited to 10M files and a very large cache will effectively reduce their quota to well below the 1TB default (they will run out of files before they run out of blocks).
