Fwiw, we disabled cache on mobile (again) for 2-3 perf bugs. I think we are the only mobile browser in the Android Market that doesn't have a disk cache. I am sure that is going to show up in both performance benchmarks as well as power benchmarks.
Is there a plan to rewrite our cache -- making it modern? IIRC, the necko cache was written back in the late 90's - a time when disk space and cpu cycles were more expensive. If there isn't a plan, we need one. I don't think continued investment into the necko cache is something we should be doing.
