The proposal is to divide the cache into two:1) A thumbnail mipmap cache, limited to a fixed max image size (say 640x480) that gets calculated on-demand and never deleted. All these mipmaps are stored to disk and a part of them is brought to memory as needed to display. 2) A full-size image cache used for the results of raw conversion, to speed up the lighttable "Z" view and opening the darkroom for an image. Again this cache is stored to disk adn can be size limited to N photos by the user or left unbounded if the user has a lot of disk space to spare.
As someone with a 4K monitor and a huge library, I am fully in favor of this solution. I might not have time to help with the implementation, but I'm happy to do testing!
