Mozilla Firebird Cache Directory

Post by ArtM »

Just installed Firebird. Screams !! Love it.

Want to make it scream more. I have a PC with Raid 0 - 2 drives interleaved (hope thats right!) - that runs my 'D' drive much faster than my 'C' drive.

How do I set up Firebird to move & update Cache on my D drive ??

Set browser.cache.disk.parent_directory to a folder path with double backslashes in about:config (I think).

Or, using the user.js:

To specify in which folder the cache is stored, add the following code to your user.js file:

// Path to Cache folder:
user_pref("browser.cache.disk.parent_directory","C:\\Path To Cache");

Remember to use two backslashes for the path separators if you're using Windows, e.g. C:\\Path\\Path To Cache instead of C:\Path\Path To Cache.
