hiya,
the mipmaps file is no longer used, but the contents of mipmaps-<hash>.d/
instead. the content of the mipmap file, however, reside in memory, exactly
the way it did before. that is, your cache settings should be exactly the
same as they were before. the difference is only that in case your
thumbnails get evicted from memory cache they are now stored on disk
(instead of being forgotten). this disk cache is queried before the
thumbnail is recomputed, in case the memory cache had a miss. this is
typically faster than running the pipeline (especially if you store the
cache on an ssd).
hope that answers your question?
