ok that was kindof boasting. My recent box enters nirvana if i it tries to thumbnail a 120 MB image. But i hope my next one will not. Ans still there are smart viewers, and 'convert'. If you've got a flatrate and 120KB/s download, and you like to see as much details from earth surface or from inside a galaxy as possible, there's much point in loading the fattest TIFF they offer. > wanting some way to slam on the brakes if I accidentally clicked on a > file over a certain amount of, er, kilobytes.

I just use to look at those files, and only stow the best of them in my image tree in the proper location. And both remnants, the selected and the not seleceted, don't need to be in the wwwoffle cache. The problem is the domain contents have long expiring times (actually, since i heavily use my custom 'woofflebook' browser-bookmark 'plugin', many of them do never expire - that is, because nowadays any huge org like NASA has *dozens* of specialised subdomains, i guess for NASA there are at least 50) so i have to deal with accumulating artefacts. A smart cache means faster access, while slow access means i'll detach the browser more often from wwwoffle. ° /\/
