+Configure limits on a cache that keeps recently extracted files from
+archives. Up to NUM files and up to a total of MB megabytes will be
+kept extracted, in order to avoid having to decompress their archives
+again. The default NUM and MB values depend on the concurrency of the
+system, and on the available disk space on the $TMPDIR or \fB/tmp\fP
+filesystem. This is because that is where the most recently used
+extracted files are kept. Grooming cleans this cache.
