 * I am trying to figure out why my WordPress Directory Size is so large. Could 
   this a caching issue? CSS issue? Jetpack runs my backups. My behind-the-scenes
   website knowledge is being stretched…

 * can you explore the “WordPress directory” to see what’s inside the directory?

 * It doesn’t expand here so no, but if there is another place in my wp-admin to
   explore the directory I would love to know. I know I can go into the server and
   I have been but it is hard to know there what is actually needed on my site and
   what is just clutter. It is such a maze.
