I thought cache_dir is for caching so I for my case I have some servers
having more than 1TB overall cache space and I am pretty happy with it.
20G or so might be enough for a not dedicated server or a small business
or home proxy. Anyway using for above mentioned reasons 20G of a 160g disk
seems kind of awkward to me
