Speaking for myself, I'm all for fewer and simpler caches along with instrumentation to back up the performance story.

I don't think we have any illusions about content exposure but whether there would be an issue with any particular approach is beyond my pay scale. Worth asking the leads *before* spending time on development. -- Monty Brandenberg 617.401.2384 mo...@lindenlab.com _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
