Run "konqueror ~" (note that's a tilde, not a dash).
Select "View". Move the mouse pointer to "View Mode", then move it right
and select
the "File Size View". It should be clear where the space is being used.

It has been a while since I ran konqueror. I had forgotten about it
I got a bit rattled with the diminishing folder space during an upgrade
and panicked with the space down to < 45M.
I could have done the same "File Size" thing with dolphin if I had had
the presence of mind

I prefer "du | sort -n". That way I get a list from smallest to
biggest.

Dolphin doesn't have the file size view mode, just konqueror.

You can try filelight.

You can try filelight.
Or you can open a terminal and enter the following incantation,
which should give you a sorted list of files and sizes from
smallest to largest. du -ah |sort -h

I just showed an option that maybe the person didn't know. A graphical representation is faster and easier to understand.
Note that that 15G could be made up of 15000 1MB files which make them
not stand out at all. Althernatively there could be a removed file (ie
no name in any directory) which is open and is is constantly having jumk dumped into it.

That is an interesting possibility. Can that actually happen..
I understand that a file can he deleted but still accessible if a
program is holding it open.
Many years ago I read an article about deleted file recovery if the file handle was still in play. It involved Inodes

I don't remember now what they are. I'm sure a DuckDuckGo search would
turn them up.

faeychild, in SeaMonkey Suite, you set the maximum size of Cache in Preferences -> Advanced -> Set Cache Options.
I think, in Firefox, the Preferences is found on the Tools drop-down.
If you need more assistance, try alt.comp.software.firefox.

In firefox, open "about:config" and search on cache. There are many options controlling it.
For chromium, it can not be controlled using the gui. Create a text file
$ cat $HOME/.config/chromium/args.txt
--disk-cache-size=1073741824
Note the leading space. The above limits the disk cache to a maximum of 1 GiB.
The size must be specified in bytes.
The args.txt file is used by the script /usr/bin/chromium to set the options when it calls the program /usr/lib64/chromium-browser/chrome. The leading space
in the file is needed as the contents of that line are appended to the options
already set in the script. If additional poorly documented options are to be added, either keep them on the same line, or use " \" at the end of each line except the last, for normal bash script line continuation.
I found the chromium option at https://superuser.com/questions/378991/what-is-chrome-default-cache-size-limit
but had to run "bash -x -v /usr/bin/chromium" to figure out the leading space was needed in the text file.
I guess the reason the above does not work with chrome is that the
EXTRA_ARGS and the args.txt is a special addition by the Mageia people,
which of course does not apply to chrome because the source for that
program is google, not Mageia. One could put the addtion into chrome,
but would have to redo it each time you upgraded chrome.
So you mean that it is relatively impossible to add this feature to
chrome?

Correct. Google doesn't want users to control their own systems, add options that might confuse the average windows user, have to include documentation
or --help options that explain how their stuff works, etc.
It looks like the /usr/bin/chromium script is from google, but Mageia added
the method to allow users to supply additional options. Not the way I would have written that part of the script, but at least it does work once you figure out how.
