Folks, According to the mapserver 5.0 development plan http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/development/release_plans/mapserver_5_0 we have planned to implement feature cache support for long running processes and query processing. This support will increase the performance of the long running processes by maintaining the features from a previous query in an internal memory cache.
The first step to implement this feature is to provide a framework to modify the behaviour of the existing providers in an unified manner. The changes described in RFC 22 will address this issue. http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/development/rfc/ms-rfc-22 Any comments and suggestions will be appreciated. Best Regards, Tamas
