Comment (by papp.gergely@…):

 This might be connected - macports user has a folder created under
 /private/var/folders.
 Most notably, it has a ~1GB com.apple.Iconservices folder. I believe this
 is unnecessary.
 Same for macports-created users with UUID > 500 (e.g. polkituser)
 There must be a setting which disables the generation of the iconcache,
 this should be the default for the macports user (and related users).
 Unfortunately I haven't been able to find the said setting myself.
