Hi,

However, if client like OpenLayers or Leaflet is making 256x256 sized WMS 
requests they are always the same for the same tile and thus cacheable as well.

Aihe: Re: [mapserver-users] enabling browser cache from Mapcache?

Dan,

> 1. No, you are not correct. The browser CAN cache those requests.
Hum, in wms mode? I am not sure. In WMTS, TMS, etc mode yes but not in WMS as 
the request will change each time.

Please take a moment to do a bit more reading about how browser caching works:
- 
https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/performance/optimizing-content-efficiency/http-caching

You cannot directly control what the browser chooses to cache but you can use 
mod_expiry and friendly-reusable URLs (like XYZ tiles) to help in that cause.  
Repetitive WMS requests will be caught by the cache but it's much harder to get 
a hit as it will change when the screen size, resolution, or small shifts in 
locations differ.

To directly answer your questions:
1. No, you are not correct. The browser CAN cache those requests.
2. Yes, the browser will cache those images.

Cheers.

Hello,

Using Apache, I would like to know if it is possible to set up a browser cache 
for images from mapcache so that images are stored on the client machine 
instead of having to get resent from the server.  I enabled mod_expires and 
noticed that the png files for the buttons are cached unfortunately the 
mapcache png files are not cached.  I presume it might not be possible to cache 
images from mapcache when used in WMS mode, but it might be possible when using 
either WMTS, or TMS mode.

Questions:

1.       Am I correct that we cannot use browser or client caching with 
mapcache in wms mode?

2.       Can we use browser cache when using WMTS or TMS services?

I am using GeoMOOSE which should be able to consume xyz TMS tiles.

Thanks!
