Justin Mclean resolved FLEX-23466.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Can't fix caching RSL frameworks is an Flash Player feature. Apache Flex RSLs
will be cached by the normal browser caching mechanism.
> Very Simple Proposal to Speed Up Download Times and Perceived Performance of
> Flex Apps

> Key: FLEX-23466
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-23466
> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: .Unspecified - Framework
> Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK Previous
> Environment: Language Found: English
> Reporter: Adobe JIRA
>
> I have been spending months trying to optimize some of our Flex apps, using
> all the standards out there (RSL, Modules, externalizing assets, making code
> smaller too, etc.). RSLs don't really work for most of my audience because
> because many of them have older computers and it can take 10-20 seconds+ to
> download.
> I was thinking, with the great advancement/feature of being able to cache
> Adobe frameworks into the Flash Player, how about the idea of creating a base
> "wrapper" or "preloader" application that was just a
> spark.components.Application, which is 300kb+, and somehow standardizing
> that.
> My thinking is that, if Adobe sponsors such a thing, and many people use it,
> we have a much higher chance of that being cached in the browser from someone
> else so we can use it. And it's small enough so the browser cache wouldn't
> mind that much.
> Even better, what if you could cache a swf like that in the Flash Player!
> Then all of our apps would effectively start out out 40kb (a module's size?).
> Loading all the RSLs can be up to 2mb! With this, it'd be a lot smaller, and
> very practical.
> Love to know your thoughts,
> Lance
