[Tilecache] TileCache tile storage questions

[Xiaoyuguan]

Thanks for quick reply. It would be nice that someone can update the doc. And who can answer the following question. Otherwise, I have to dig into tilecache source code ...

> " I don't know if TileCache follows the same strategy as MapProxy regarding tiles with the same RGB (i.e. lake areas) as it reuses tiles permitting huge disk space savings."

Theoretically, a sqlite db could be terabyte-sized (http://www.sqlite.org/features.html) but keep in mind that the access to the tiles would degraded just after a few gigabytes. I don't know if TileCache follows the same strategy as MapProxy regarding tiles with the same RGB (i.e. lake areas) as it reuses tiles permitting huge disk space savings.
