Web Designer Garvik (C. Harwick) noticed an unpleasant feature of Safari 4 Beta: browser, even in Private Mode operation maintains the entire history of visits. The History folder contains information about visited sites. In just a few months potyazhelela directory to 100 MB. Likewise is the case with a folder and Top Sites. The Quicklook thumbnails of sites stored folder that are Garvik notes are never deleted. In just a few months, this folder scored 2 GB weight (lead his readers and more impressive numbers - 5 GB).
The very tip Garvika is somewhat panicky nature, although it is something of a beta version in which errors may occur. Among the possible solutions offered disabling Top Sites (on site MacOSXTips.com published the following command to the Terminal: defaults write com.apple. Safari DebugSafari4IncludeTopSites -bool FALSE
) And script Safari CleanUpWhich automatically removes cache, foreign icons, plist-file.
