 Replying to [comment:2 donncha]:
 > In [2025] I added simple caching of the dirsize. It's invalidated when a
 file is uploaded or deleted but should still help with loading the
 dashboard.

 Donncha, it's not a big deal but wouldn't you be better off using
 transients for caching the blog size? It would save you from having to
 manually check if the cache should have expired.

 {{{
 set_transient('dirsize_cache', $dirsize, 3600);
 }}}
 instead of
 {{{
 update_option()
 }}}
 and
 {{{
 get_transient('dirsize_cache')
 }}}
 instead of
 {{{
 get_option()
 }}}
