Comment	>>> Are you talking about client-side or server-side caching? We only >>> cache Kolab data server-side, the client-side cache is independent >>> from the backend and doesn't persist sessions. >>> Of course "zooming in" to calendar views is quicker than zooming out >>> or navigation forth or back. Pre-fetching doesn't make much sense, >>> because you might fetch data which you will never use resp. display, >>> and there is typical navigation pattern like in IMP that we could use >>> to predict that data we might need next. >> >> yes, client side caching is probably what I had in mind. >> I guess you mean there is no typical pattern like in imp. >> >> Let me give you an example: >> Changing the current day view in our company wide calendar takes >> about three to four seconds (using a Kolab backend).
