caching

Any ehcache standalone example projects I can download?

I'm a little overwhelmed reading through the ehcache user guide http://ehcache.org/EhcacheUserGuide.html#id.s20.

Performance penalty with executing x86 instructions stored in the data segment?

Hi. I have a simple program that first writes some native x86 instructions into a declared buffer, and then sets a function pointer to this buffer and makes a call.

Is there a way to determine if Flash has cached an object?

Greetings, I am writing a networked flash application. The server (an independent C++ app) sends resources for the flash client to manipulate and/or display, eg, images and sound.
