Hello, I'm planning to add an experimental HTTP cache implementation to WebKit ( https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30322). The main motivations are:
- Improving performance by bringing the cache closer. For example we can serialize WebKit response objects directly instead of converting to/from platform types. - Making future innovation around caching easier. Closer coordination between cache and WebKit opens new optimization possibilities. The cache lives in the network process. Most of the code is cross-platform. The storage backend uses libdispatch IO though it wouldn't be hard to add a generic posix one too. The code will be behind NETWORK_CACHE feature flag. antti
