Maybe this doesn’t happen to you but: my infuse app on my Apple TV constantly clears the cache because it gets full. This requires it to rescan my library before I have access to my media. Kind of a pain. Server side processing like with jelly fin would prevent this from happening. This is the reason I bounce back and forth between infuse and Plex on my Apple TV.

I have heard/read of people having the same issue but I’ve never experienced this myself thankfully
Recently checked the metadata cache which was about 1.9GB which felt a bit bigger than I’d have expected but I’m not sure what a typical value is

Haven't had this issue here either. Metadata currently 731 MB on a 32GB ATV 4k.

I also have this all the time. I think it stores the metadata in iCloud (if you configure it) so it does not rescan your media, but it does need to redownload the iCloud data. No other app suffers from this, so I think it’s a bug.
