The disk cache of Mozilla Firefox 3.0 cannot store more than 8192 objects no matter what the maximum disk cache size is.

Mine has set 256 MB (Disk Cache) but it always remains around 80 MB.

And the objects stored never crosses 8192 objects. I think it is the limitation of the _CACHE_MAP_ file which is in plain limited format. As the history has been transformed into sqlite database in Mozilla 1.9 branch. You should store the Cache Map also in sqlite format which is beyond limitation or take off the limit on disk cache like Google Chrome
