Given I use the cache-first method, I forgot about that and was never really bothered by it. But from reports, the problem is far worse for users that download and save directly, instead of as two separate operations, as the two operations appear to interfere with each other at least to some extent, and fast-freeze-fast-freeze becomes a problem, with the freezes apparently occurring during the decode-and-combine phase, freezing other stuff while that bit is occurring. Doing the caching first, the decode-and-combine when I actually save something isn't as troublesome, as it comes when I've specifically setup a save job, instead of at a more or less random time when all the segments of a post happen to be completely downloaded so it can be saved automatically, as happens with the download-and-save method. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
