They are cached in memory, Logitech had some ideas to implement
persistent caching earlier but I suspect it hasn't got priority yet.
The caching is currently handled in the standard SqueezeOS code, not in
the applet. So the current solution probably works pretty good as long
as you don't turn off the Radio completely every day.
I currently don't have any plans to implement persistent cachning
myself, but if someone wants it and is willing to create a patch, I'll
consider including it. I'm not completely sure if persistent caching is
a good idea since the flash memory have limited number of write cycles.
It could possibly be a good idea to pre-fetch more images but I'm a bit
worried about using too much CPU and memory if I do this in the
background, currently I think it only fetch an image just before it's
about to be shown the first time.
It will probably work a bit better in 7.6 with the new improved artwork
handling in SBS.
