The /home user quotas for all existing users has been bumped from 80M to 200M to handle Firefox’s big disk footprint.
Our former quota of 80M was insufficient for the latest version of Firefox. By default Firefox uses 50M for file caching and another 30M->90M to stash a per-user copy of an anti-phishing blacklist file. Together, these two things could consume the entire original quota of 80M through normal Firefox usage. Rather than turning off Firefox’s cacheing and anti-phishing features I asked James to bump the quota from 80M to 200M and edited the ‘new user’ checklist post with the new values.
