Cache

  • The PSPDFCache is responsible for managing the memory and disk cache of rendered images.

    Usually you do not access any methods of PSPDFCache directly but instead schedule a PSPDFRenderTask in a PSPDFRenderQueue which will then reach out to the cache and check if there are images available before rendering a new one.

@interface PSPDFCache : NSObject

    class PDFCache : NSObject

  • The disk cache persists its metadata on disk together with the images and provides cached images even after the app restarts.

    The disk cache is designed to store and fetch images, including metadata, in a fast way. No actual images will be held in memory (besides during the time they are scheduled for writing to disk).

  • The memory cache holds images in memory to give the render engine access to them as fast as possible. By default its memory constraints are configured to get the best performance out of the current device.
