# Each image tile has a dimension of 1024x1024 pixels. Each pixel is an RGBA value.
# That is a single image tile has 4MB. You should adjust the cache size, that at
# least a whole horizotnal row of image tiles fit into the cache. E. g. if your
# project usually has a horizontal dimension of 10000 pixel, you need around 10
# tiles for a tile row. That are around 40 MB cache size. 
# If you have enough memory, you can multiply this value by the number of layers
# you normally use.
