Path caching and lookup #4

Closed Yonaba closed 10 years ago

Yonaba commented 11 years ago

Provide a clever path caching system, so that requesting a path previously calculted and cached triggers a simple database lookup. This alternative might be implemented as a complementary feature for the pathfinder, as discussed here.

The initial idea was to provide a light version of Compressed Path Databases (CPDs), but I will cancel this. Although it provides some speedups, it also complicates the actual implementation. Let us ditch this idea.
