[kredda]

Hi i installed disk usage to check out what i have going on, my concerns is when i check out internal storage it says, data & cache 225 mb which breaks down as 37.1 mb on applications 70.7 mb free space which when i check it out is only 33mb but system data says 117.0mb is this normal it seems quite high to me ? just wondering ?

System data consists of several things:
1. Unpacked dalvik bytecodes corresponding to your installed apks. If you install app on external storage, it still consumes space on your data partition.
2. Crash dumps stored in tombstones directory.
3. Any other data or settings android store on your device.

This data is hidden and DiskUsage can't easily identify how much space each of this consume. Usually (1) consumes most, so if you want to cleanup some space you may want to delete apps on external storage.
