I just noticed today, that my cache isnt completely emptying. The BTRFS Data gets stuck at ~16GB usage. 

Any ideas on how to resolve, or do I need to reboot?

Enable mover logging, run the mover, post the diagnostics. 

I disabled the cache for all shares and moved the tdarr-temp share away from it (which was Cache only), deleted the tdarr-temp folder (even though it was empty), and ran the mover again and it cleared it this time. Moved the folder back to the cache and re-enabled it and its been fine since. 

 

Not sure what happened but for some reason the BTRFS Data "partition" just stayed as this "Data, single: total=16.00GiB, used=15.81GiB" even with multiple balance attempts. 

Sorted now though
