All DAG-based algorithms only implement a light DAG, which is sufficient for validation
but not full nodes or miners. For the DAG-based algorithms and verthash, data is cached in `~/.powcache`.
Ethash will generally be between 40-80Mb per epoch (and generally 3 caches are stored), but verthash
requires a strict 1.2Gb, so be careful if you're using verthash in memory. At the time of writing, running
