Do cache paths need to be generated each time?

[jeffj9930]

Hi,
This isn't an issue really but a question.
Can I create the cache for each chapter only once? That is, if I have a large enough SSD can I run 'prepcache' on ch12, ch13, ch14 and then be able to experiment on each chapter? Currently I have only enough space for a single chapter's cache so I must clear_cache each time I go to a different chapter and redo prepcache. If I use a 2TB SSD I can fit all three chapters. Is this possible or does some database get matched up with the current cache? I see separate folders under cache so I hope so.

Yes, prepping the cache once per chapter and then leaving them as-is should work fine.

The cache is set up per-chapter to minimize the total disk space needed at one time, but as you note, it can be annoying to move back and forth between chapters if space is tight.

Please reopen the issue if you run into any problems!
