Assuming the program is doing the following: you just work on your computer and that daemon is registering all files that you access. the most used files(?) are getting cached at next boot right? @the other replies i agree that it shouldn't just cache some pre set programs.. some users might not use them and that will bee a pure waste of memory.. but it was just a idea to get this caching of the ground in Fedora. The best thing would be the assumption that i've written above (or that's what i think would work best). In my case Pidgin would be (or i would add it) in the list because i use it quite often. More brainstorming on this would be cool. And what are the current caching systems? wasn't there a Google SOC (Summer Of Code) about the caching this year.. and how did that one ended up? -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
