Each browser stores information from your visited websites, such as images and other downloaded elements. It is stored in the browser’s cache and is useful when you return to the website, since the browser won’t need to download the elements again. However this can also cause the browser to function slower. Emptying the cache occasionally improves the speed and performance of the browser significantly.
