Cache Appears to Exceed Maximum Cache Size (lemm.ee)

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, and it doesn't bother me, but I noticed this while messing around in the settings and figured I should mention it here.

My current cache is at 157.1 MB and maximum cache is set to 128 MB.

This might just be a nothing burger, but if it isn't I'd rather speak up than not. Loving the app

I think the maximum size is just a threshold and when the batch job for deleting cache starts, it'll check if the current size is larger than the threshold size. If that is true, it'll clear cache. The app can't very well be continuously check cache size, that'll cost too much battery life.

I assumed as much. I just didn't want to make that assumption, not say anything, and be wrong.

Thanks for the explaination!

Is also an assumption on my end. Ruben is the only one who can answer for sure
