[Qgis-developer] Using PostGIS on a slow connection

[Mathieu Pellerin]

Martin, maybe render caching should be turned/forced on by default on qgis
master builds right now so there can be a higher of ppl using it and
reporting possible regressions? If it's now smooth and problem-free
following mtr merge, it can be left on by default for final 2.4 release.
