+You can customize these settings to set maximum limits for cache retention and cache storage size across your enterprise:

-* If you run a workflow on a standard Linux runner and it takes 10 minutes to complete, you'll use 10 minutes of the repository owner's allowance. If the workflow generates a 10 MB artifact, then you'll also use 10 MB of the repository owner's storage allowance.

 * If you run a workflow that normally takes 10 minutes and it fails after 5 minutes because a dependency isn't available, you'll use 5 minutes of the repository owner's allowance. If you fix the problem and re-run the workflow successfully, in total you'll use 15 minutes of the repository owner's allowance.
-* If you run a workflow that generates many log files and a long job summary, these files do not count towards the repository owner's storage allowance.

+For example, if your organization uses {% data variables.product.prodname_team %}, using 5,000 minutes beyond the included quota would have a total actions minutes cost of $56 USD, with the use of both Linux and Windows runners.
 
 * 5,000 (3,000 Linux and 2,000 Windows) minutes = $56 USD ($24 USD + $32 USD).
   * 3,000 Linux minutes at $0.008 USD per minute = $24 USD.
   * 2,000 Windows minutes at $0.016 USD per minute = $32 USD.
