[IDV #ESN-459441]: "Always cache to disk" setting

> Hello again,

No problem.

> catalog/Unidata IDD Model Data/NFS-ATM/Global Forecast System
> Model/NCEP GFS Global 0.5 degree).

> After having added a few fields to be plotted, IDV loses it completely,
> and starts generating an endless stream of "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError"
> messages. This never happens using a locally stored GFS GRIB2 file for
> plotting the same fields.
> 
> I think I have narrowed it down to the "Always cache to disk" setting
> for the data source (right-click/properties/properties), which I
> thought meant that downloaded data would be cached the specified time,
> allowing it to be reused for additional plots within the specified
> delay time without having it to be downloaded again (?). Enabling the

Can you send in a bundle that exhibits this behavior? If anything the 
cache-to-disk
flag would reduce memory use but it might be buggy.
