I noticed that my user's intellij caches folder are getting quite large. Is there any harm in deleting this folder? The path is .IntelliJIdea50\system\caches Thanks

The only harm is that your next project opening will take longer because IDEA will have to rebuild the caches for your project. Other than that, it's OK to do.

Hello bruno,

Change the value of the idea.system.path property in bin\idea.properties
file under the IntelliJ IDEA installation directory.
