Re^4: File caching for external storage

Cache::Cache looks like it has some of the functionality you need, specifically memory caching some of the smaller sizes or even caching on the local drive based on a size limit. I haven't used it before, so someone else can comment on its stability and their experiences with it.

Cache::FileCache looks promising. Though, I have not used this myself. UPDATE scratch that. I should have read more. The Module code may prove interesting in your coding efforts.

Yeah, the Cache::Cache stuff is really cool for the caching part of things, but it doesn't really seem to be very good for determining what should go IN or OUT of the cache, because obviously I will want more requested files going IN and less requested files coming OUT, but certainly it might be part of my application, thanks!!! OH!!!!! But Cache::SizeAwareCache might be exactly what I'm looking for, sweet!!!!	[reply]
