I guess this has something to do with the cache size and the Windows abitly to index extremely large numbers of folders and images. Has anyone else experienced this? could a solution be to transfore the cache to sqllite databases? and if so what are the preformance conciderations of doing this?. I might be worth noting that the preformance drop is within the cached area /  zoom depth.


are you really sure that all tiles are cached for the slow requests? You can check if there are source requests logged while you make a requests that takes longer than others.
