Caching/Reloading content #232

Closed xandro0777 closed 3 years ago

xandro0777 commented 3 years ago

Noticed that SCW does some kind of refresh/reload quite often, even in situations where I would not expect it. For example SCW is "on top", screen locks after a timeout - after unlocking it seems to reload the page. Same if SCW was briefly in the background. Whats more, caching apparently won't cache much.

Duplicate of #193 (and #125, I guess).

In my case the reload appears to happen even if the page was previously fully loaded, which doesn't seem to be the case with #193 ?

As of #125 so far I can only say other browsers apparently caching reduces network load much more significantly - even though I didn't close any tabs and didn't exit the browser. Other browsers also regularly consume much more memory so it is a tradeoff.

Even if the page has loaded completely, if a component has not loaded completely (e.g. an image of the page), the page will reload. I think this is the same case as #193, but it's best to leave the issue open until this is confirmed.

As of #125 so far I can only say other browsers apparently caching reduces network load much more significantly - even though I didn't close any tabs and didn't exit the browser. Other browsers also regularly consume much more memory so it is a tradeoff.

The biggest problem in #125 is the fact that the cache is re-stored every time the app is minimized and the other problem cited is the 'User Date' which is not cleaned after a certain time, even if you clear cookies, etc.

Note: Looking better, it seems that one of your problems is almost the "inverse of #125, because the cache is not being stored (or little cache is being stored), right?
