I never was affected by this problems since my laptop have two SSD, but the
constant Read/Write is making unecessary wear on the driver.
I also notice that are other directorys/files for plasma cache outside of the
affected `~/.cache/kwin/qmlcache` (but I could be missing more):
```bash
~/.cache/KDE/
~/.cache/plasmashell/
~/.cache/plasma-systemmonitor/
~/.cache/plasma_theme_internal-system-colors.kcache
~/.cache/plasma_theme_default.kcache
```
This files are small in size, so will not be a good ideia to use /tmp directory
instead for this type of cache?
I dont know if the kde cache could grow when using other kde plugins, but I
dont really think anyone is running plasma 5 and up on system with less that
2Gb of ram
