I've configured PBS 4 to use my BackBlaze S3 bucket. However, I'm unclear how the local cache is used. I run PBS as a VM, so there's limited "local" storage. For a regular PBS datastore I use a NFS mounted path to my Synology which works great. It appears the local S3 cache gets very large, and used up all the VM's space. Looks like I should create another NFS mount and use that as the cache for the S3 bucket? Will there be a way in the future to hard limit how large the local S3 cache is?
