Hymir is a Java based IIIF Server. It is based on "IIIF Image API Java Libraries" and "IIIF Presentation API Java Libraries" projects (see https://github.com/dbmdz)
Currently Hymir does not do any caching on its own.
This is less than ideal if the images are fetched from a remote source, e.g. via HTTP or S3.
In this case, users should have the option to configure either an on-disk cache or simple LRU RAM caching.
This should be fairly simple to implement using something like EHcache.
