[QUOTE="Baboonanza, post: 654517, member: 101901"] [b]Re: AW: Re: MP2, plugins, and multiple clients.[/b] Good points. I have been thinking about possible image caching strategies recently but I hadn't considered that local SSD storage. The problem is that there isn't any 'correct' solution because results will vary greatly across systems. The options are: Server RAM cache - Compressed images stored in RAM to reduce latency. Client HDD cache - Compressed images (whose original source is the server) stored on local HDD. This would only really be useful if you had an SSD. Could be persistent between sessions maybe? Client RAM cache - Compressed images stored in RAM on the client. In practice there is no point in using both client-side caching mechanisms - If you have an SSD you'd cache to disk, otherwise RAM. I'm not sure there is much point in server-side caching unless you have clients with no local caching so I probably won't bother with that. Client-side caching will clearly have to be configurable.
