Hi Jeff: how about introducing a cache system for Basemap objects?
You recently gave me the idea of using cPickle on Basemap objects, so I implement a very simple cache system that try to check if map has already been serialized and dumped to a cache file, before trying to create it from scratch. Checking is performed on file name which contains bounds and resolution of the map. Do you think that it can be managed directly (and in a better way) in Basemap(), let's say using the cache keyword set to False by default? A cache directory in ~/.matplotlib/basemap can be used for that. -- Stephane Raynaud ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
