P: 'Limit Preview Cache Size' taking too long to purge

In LR 14.0.1 I have been trying to use the new 'Limit Preview Cache Size' feature.  But after 2 week there is no change to the size of my preview cache after multiple restarts etc.  I've limited the cache to 250GB, but my previews remain at 460gb

 

Any ideas how this feature works or shold work?

    Second this.

     

    How does this work? I'm seeing no chance in preview cache file sizes.

    In the end I have simply deleted my preview catalogue.  My assumption is that when starting from scratch then LR will respect the limit when it's reached and start purging the older previews.  I'll keep you posted!
