you have bugs open about NetSurf having a "caching" issue or failure
to display images etc. none of which have logs attached and are
explicitly awaiting feedback. It would be helpful if you could respond
to these so we can get enough information to attempt to fix them.

On RISC OS I have determined that disc caching is generally a waste of
time as the filesystems performance is dreadful. The default *disc*
cache size on RISC OS is 0 (i.e. off) and is probably the correct
value for such low performance systems.
