Earlier in the settings there was such an opportunity, now it is not. Through opportunity about:config I can not increase the size of disk /cache

You can increase the size of the disk cache via about:config (browser.cache.disk prefs). You need to disable automatic disk cache management.

  • browser.cache.disk.smart_size.enabled = false
  • browser.cache.disk.capacity (kB: 256000)
