I have a client that reached the storage limit of his hostingprovider. I checked the ftp and found that all the images he has in the gallery (a node in Media) has about ~250 identical copies in the Cached-folder. The images are only requested from one place in the front end (using the imagegen image resize and also brands a copyright text). The gallery section of the site is generally quite slow...
So, it appears that I get a new copy in the cahced folder EVERY time I hit domain.com/ImageGen.ashx?image=/media/20599/roots2013-87.jpg&text=%26amp;%23169;%20copy%20Text&valign=bottom&fontsize=14&width=700
Huge amount of cahced identical images

Site is using umbraco 4.7.1 and ImageGen 2.5.7
Any idea why this is occuring?

Not sure how exactly to debug this...
Hm, it appears to NOT be creating new copies when I remove the text parameter in the querystring. Is this related to this: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/website-utilities/imagegen/imagegen-bugs/2982-%5BUPDATE%5D-Fix-to-caching-bug-in-201 old issue? However I am using 2.5.7 as stated above?!

Hi, David,
Do upgrade to 2.9, which should resolve the issue.
cheers,
