 * What could account for this discrepancy in the Minify cache?
   – Current cache:**
   721.75 KB (6 files)**– Total cache: **3.00 GB (22243 files)**

 * [@zgall1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zgall1/) As mentioned in the tool
   tip, the minify cache folder contains the older, non-expired cache, as well as
   the temporary files used to generate the minified files.
   All old and expired 
   files will be deleted once every day via cron job. You could confirm it by install
   WP Crontrol plugin and make sure you have `wpo_minify_purge_old_cache` eventLooking
   at your stat the non-expired cache files and temp files seems to be too large(
   in size and no. of files)1. Make sure the above mentioned cron event is present
   and cron jobs are working correctly on your website..2. Please inspect your `
   wp-config.php` file. If it happens to have `define('WP_DEBUG', true);` rule, 
   then make sure the value is `false`
