[gdal-dev] RFC 47 Status.

[Tomaka, Jacek]

Even, 

I am not sure I understand what you are saying about 2.0 beta. Does it mean that it is too late for inclusion or it did not make it to the beta but can still make it to 2.0?
Given that the functionality is enabled by setting GDAL_DATASET_CACHING=YES it should not be too destabilizing?

I agree that per-dataset block cache is huge improvement. Especially in scenarios when different threads are reading different files/datasets. 

If there is chance for it to still be included in 2.0 please let me know what needs to be done to make it happen.  

Regards.
Jacek Tomaka

Jacek,

Pending. IMHO the per-dataset block cache vs global block cache looks good. 
I'm less convinced by the attempts to provide even limited multi-threaded access to a same GDALDataset object.

No, not that we are now in beta phase.
