As your library and usage of XBMC grows, so does the memory taken up by XBMC's various settings and files. This page is designed to help reduce the space used, as well as reclaim space from files that are no longer needed.
Actor images
Limit the size of cached images
Cleanup unused images
Main page: Texture Cache Maintenance utility
XBMC does not automatically prune old images that are no longer used. For example, if you remove a movie from the library then the poster and fanart will still be saved in XBMC's userdata folder. Until XBMC has an internal method of pruning these files you can use the highly versatile Texture Cache Maintenance utility to remove unused images.
