[opensource-dev] Question about speed of name cache query

[Lance Corrimal]

All I know about name caching is this:

clear your cache the hard way, by removing everything in the cache 
folder, then open the info tab of a group with a really high number of 
members, and your framerate will go to hell until all display names 
have been fetched.
