Where does CUPS store kB and page countaccounting information?

Since this "internal cache" has to be persistent across machine or daemon restarts (i.e. the page and kB counts are persistent), cupsd has to write these to disk at some point. Are you, probably, suggesting that the only information that is persistently stored by cupsd is in the /var/spool/cups/c* files?
