Cache JSON

[toddvalentine]

I am using your extension to provide JSON to some jPlayer instances. The JSON returned from the api calls rarely changes. Would it be possible to provide a way to cache a GET request's JSON so we don't have to run the db queries and create the JSON if it hasn't changed from the cache?

We could implement a query caching with SS_Cache but it will have to be tested and not sure of the performance gain. Maybe a better solution would be to cache your queries locally (you'll save a lot in server round trip and more...) with LocalStorage or similar, you could cache queries with a QueryString => JSON key/value pair and if the query string already exist return the JSON from LocalStorage otherwise query the server...

Thanks for bringing LocalStorage to my attention. If you don't feel like the SS_Cache option would provide enough of a performance gain, please feel free to close this issue.

Closing for now but I'll keep SS_Cache in the back of my head....
