[Qgis-developer] Postgis Caching - Enhancement

[Alex Mandel]

Searching tickets I don't see this one, but wanted to check that it
wasn't on the roadmap.

Often when working with Postgis layers, it's a read-only relationship
directly to a table or view that is not expected to change anytime soon.
To speed up panning/zooming etc we should implement and optional caching
mechanism (maybe this is a general feature for all vector providers?).

It's one of the only things I've seen OpenJump do that QGIS doesn't do
at all. See the Check box in the add table dialog - Cache Features
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/jump-pilot/index.php?title=Working_with_Databases

Topic comes up often:
http://gis.stackexchange.com/q/46967/3183
There are plenty of previous conversations like this around.

If it's not anywhere in the plans I'll be happy to open a ticket.

Thanks,
Alex
