 Hi everyone,
 
 I want to know if it's possible to control what is caching by the browser.
 It's possible to free cache (memory) of OL ? Because when I use for a long 
 time my application firefox take 600 000 KO of memory 

This can be caused by memory leaks. But in most cases it is just because a 
debugger (e.g. Firebug) is active when running the application. You should run 
your application without a debugger active, and if the memory footprint still 
increases, it is likely because of memory leaks (which can be in your 
application, but also OpenLayers is known to have some).

Regards,
Andreas. 

 
 Thanks

Mh. Good question. Well, maybe not. But I don't think anybody has ever 
investigated potential leaks in Firefox. According to 
http://dbaron.org/mozilla/leak-monitor/, no web application should be able to 
cause memory leaks in a browser. If it does, then it's a bug in the browser.

Yeah. FWIW, and in case we want to support IE  8, I have a patch
implementing a garbage bin element, see
http://trac.openlayers.org/attachment/ticket/2170/patch-2170-A0.diff.
