Obviously, if you want to cache the images between runs of the
application, you need to cache them as binary onto the disk. If you
are OK with the images being loaded after every launch of the
application, you can cache them into an NSMutableDictionary with the
URL as the key, and the image object itself as the object (no need to
convert it into binary if you're just going to store it in a
dictionary). Just ask the dictionary for it's "objectForKey" by
passing the URL. It will return 'nil' if it hasn't been cached yet
(in which case you need to fetch the image and cache it). This is
generally how all caches work.

Okay, so I know I can somehow cache them... but I have some noob
questions.
- how do I cache the images themselves? Some binary data object
written to
the disk? How?
- how do I check if the image has already been loaded (check an
NSMutableArray populated with dictionaries with a url string and url
key?)
- if I find that the image has been cached (somehow), how do I use
that
image instead?

In my table, when a cell isn't nil I am setting UILabels, etc.
However, in
each cell I have a UIImageView... and the contents of each is an

fetched from my server. No problem on initial display, but as soon
as you
start scrolling and the cells are reused, I am fetching new
artwork...
which
makes the scrolling chug along.
Is there a way to cache these images, and if it was previously
loaded to
use
that instead of loading from the url again?
Thanks,
