With all the problems apparently from the cache getting too large, I took a look at constraining the cache size. Attached is a diff for your perusal and testing.
If the storage free space is too small, cache entries are removed until
the free space is available. If no more cache entries remain, a cache
entry is not created and SaveImageInStorageCache() will 'fail' and the
image will remain in dynamic space until the viewer finishes with it and
it is removed from memory.
Comments? questions?
