[BUG] docker/volume/immich_model-cache is 65GB about immich

If you're changing the ML model around then it's expected to have a bunch of them cached in the model cache, you can clean up the ones you're not using anymore manually.

@mertalev is the large openvino conversion expected?
45G ./immich_model-cache/_data/clip/ViT-g-14__laion2b-s12b-b42k/openvino

[mertalev]

In general, we just provide a cache folder for OpenVINO; how it gets used is totally up to them.

If it failed a few times (like from a timeout), then there might be duplicate blobs in there. It could also decide that something's different about its environment and it needs to recompile parts (or all) of the model, storing each variant in the cache.

You can delete the openvino folder and restart the service to see how big a clean set of cache blobs is. If it keeps increasing with each restart then that'd be unexpected.

Thanks, I thought I would keep them until I find out if any investigation is required.

Thanks

I deleted the unused models
I deleted all the .blob files in the used model

Restarted containers and everything is working ok, including smart search.

Hi

If I want to mount the immich_mode-cache folder out of the docker volumes and into an externally mounted directory, what is the best way to do that? Thank you.

You can change the model-cache:/cache line to <insert-host-path-here>:/cache.
