Maybe but i just installed voyager fresh and its 53mb. It was 2.6gb and if it only works when storage is low then it would get to like 65gb (thats what i have free) and with 2.6gb it was getting reeeaaaallllyyy slow. Now its fast again. So the theory sounds nice, in practice its not very much. Plus a big cache is nice when i need te revisit the same thing multiple times and it saves on time but since i dont really revisit things a lot its just a wast of space (my explanation is somewhat shit but hey, new years and booze)
It wouldn’t get to the full amount of storage. Full storage or cache wouldn’t make it slow as it only gets what it needs from the cache.
What exactly will having lots of empty space do for you right now ?
