What’s new

  • Reduced combined icon and thumbnail cache budgets from 256 MB to 64 MB.
  • Sized thumbnails to their display size and screen scale, using 75% less bitmap memory for 64-point filmstrip thumbnails on Retina displays.
  • Released images when cells disappear and prevented cancelled requests from repopulating the thumbnail cache.
  • Kept separate cached resolutions so small thumbnails never replace larger previews.

Actual memory savings depend on browsing history and cache usage. All 82 release-mode tests passed.

Install
