Increase storage quota available to an Incognito window |
||||||||||||||||||||||
Issue descriptionChrome Version: All OS: All What steps will reproduce the problem? (1) Open a fresh Incognito window. (2) Visit https://cloud3squared.com/files/sw-analytics-demo/index.html (or any other PWA that stores data using the Cache Storage API). (3) Observe that there is only ~120mb of storage quota (https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/08/estimating-available-storage-space) allocated to each origin in that window. (4) Compare with a non-Incognito window, which is allocated a storage quota proportional to the amount of free space left on the device. (5) Reload a few times and the quota will be quickly used up. What is the expected result? Something larger than ~120mb—ideally the same quota as a non-Incognito window would get, so that developers testing their Progressive Web Apps in Incognito windows don't see an artificially low limit. What happens instead? The ~120mb is very easy to use up, leading to QuotaExceeded exceptions that would likely not be seen in non-Incognito windows (unless the device was legitimately storage constrained). The fact that opaque cached responses contribute ~7mb each to the storage usage means that you can cache around 17 entries before your entire PWA stops allowing additional caching. (See https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=796060 for more context as to why the quota is being used so quickly.)

Thanks for that context! I'll leave this open on the off chance that someone does feel comfortable raising the limits, but if there isn't an appetite to do that, feel free to close this.
