Btw, On relation to the cache size, on my development tests with my branch, I notice it can easily reach hundreds of MBytes.

If my branch get merged on day: https://code.launchpad.net/~mrluzeiro/kicad/kicad_new3d-viewer The 3D viewer will use that cached models to speed up the board loading (so there is no need to parse the model files and recalculate normals etc..) The cache is global, on accord to last Cirilo email, that will be per user account. There is a hash function that maps the real file to the cached data, also it checks for file modification (Cirilo can give more details about it).
