Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Everything.me, defect)

Additional information:
Currently, every time a collection is opened (or an Evme search is made), a search for Apps and BgImage are made and cached so that next time you open it - wait time will be minimal.
Cache is limited to 20 FIFO and for 24 hours only.

Our planned change:
1. Separate search cache from Collections.
2. Cache indefinitely.
3. Apart from first Collection open - results and bgimage will always be retrieved from cache.
4. Each time a Collection is opened, a request to the API is sent with the cached results signature (checksum) - only if there's new data - it'll be pulled from API and stored to cache.

Also, whenever a Collection is removed from the homescreen - it's corresponding cache should be purged.

WIP: cache response and use it. still not very fast because of all the icon requests.

Ran, do you think we should store the icons locally other than relying on system cache?

Let's make sure cdn cache headers are configured correctly.
