I have one observation.
Some KM cache files at my XP were populating IE's 'Temporary Internet Files' folder.
Helping one russian comrade in his case we found that some KM builds (Ex.: 75b) don't keep some big files in KM profile cache folder and some (Ex.:74) do.
Than was found that there are pref
browser.cache.disk.max_entry_size
that defines max size of file stored in disk cache.
KM75b has value '4096' there that means 512k (value is treated as kilobits not kilobytes!) - all files bigger weren't written into KM-cache (and goes into IE-cache!).
Default Mozilla's value (and same for KM74) is 51200 (6400kb=6.25Mb).
Take it in account when using KM. Feel free to set your own value. '-1' should force ALL files to be cached.
Also there are similar pref for RAM cache:
browser.cache.memory.max_entry_size
Difference is that "Items larger than 90% of browser.cache.memory.capacity are never cached." (c) Read full article about
Mozilla networking preferences to know more...
First a correction, 4096kbit is 500KB, not 512KB
Also 51200kbit is 6250KB and 6.10MB
After that, then, my K-meleon installs should be broken, because I have larger files in disk cache and memory cache. Go to about:cache and check.
In fact, I have a GIF from this afternoon of 1.00 MB (1.052.034 bytes).
Something doesn't match in that theory.
Also, the K-meleon default value for browser.cache.disk.max_entry_size is 4096.
pref("browser.cache.disk.max_entry_size", 4096);
This is the line directly copied from kmeleon.js of K-meleon 74.
EDIT: a little further.
I have 6 files over 500KB:
1325886 bytes 1294,810547 KB
1052034 bytes 1027,376953 KB
678911 bytes 662,9990234 KB
563052 bytes 549,8554688 KB
557509 bytes 544,4423828 KB
I checked in IE cache files and I don't have created or modified files beyond past month :/
