User Reviews

Toggle Cache is praised for its simplicity and effectiveness in controlling Firefox's cache, with reports of faster, more stable page loads and reduced disk writes. Its downsides are uneven results across users and the lack of fine-grained disk-vs-memory cache options.

Pros

Simple, elegant, tiny, and just works.
Works as intended and very effective at controlling Firefox cache.
Reduces disk writes and can toggle off the cache, potentially improving SSD longevity.
Improves page loading stability and reduces cache-related glitches/crashes.

Cons

Not effective for all users; some report no change.
Lacks granular control: toggles both disk and memory caches (disk-only option not available).
For some users the feature may be unnecessary or not meet their needs.

Is Toggle Cache Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Toggle Cache does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Toggle Cache has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
