I have some questions about "load URL", the docs and my tests are not altogether clear to me on these points:

1. "The file is downloaded into a local cache. It does not remain available after the application quits..."

Does this mean the file is deleted from the hard drive, or simply inaccessible on next run? I seem to have varying results :-o


2. "Note: Cached files consume memory. To release this memory after you are finished with a URL, use the unload command to remove it from the cache."

Does "memory" mean hard drive space? Or actually RAM? (If hard drive space, I suggest the docs be updated with this term, as "memory" = "RAM" to many people)


3. (Apart from the answer to #2) I know "put URL into..." has to load the entire file into RAM... where libURLdownloadToFile does not (and so is much better for large files).

Does "load URL" need to fit the entire file into RAM?


Thanks for any illumination!
