My understanding is that this was an intentional change. See these
upstream issues about other people complaining about the same thing!
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/5359
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/5652
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/5799

However, in this commit the maximum cache size was reduced to 150MB, so
hopefully 0.29 will improve this:

Thanks,
