The default cache size is 200,000. Just to cover a small screen of 640x480 with gray glyphs, we might need 300,000. If we go LCD or BGRA on a larger screen... Uh-oh. basically we have never had enough cache for ftview, even if it works. Anyway, until recently I was happy to create some rendering load in ftview for profiling and FTC was never showing up.
