Hi. I love your plugin. I had a problem, that I think your plugin could have averted for me. Last night I was effectively locked out of several admins because, for some weird reason, gravatar.com images were halting the completion of loading my admin pages. On several different installs. The frontends all worked great, because I think your program was doing its job (a real hero!). However, I guess that admin gravatars are not being cached? The problem went away after 6 hours. I hope it doesn’t come back. But just in case, maybe next time you are looking to add features, could you consider caching the admin too?

Hello Kendall,
sorry about the delay, something happened to our forum notifications.
We know the kind of issues you are talking about. Sometimes the third party server is overloaded and is slows down your entire website if it’s loading some images or scripts from that server. It could be gravatars, sharing buttons or even stat tracking codes.
That’s one of the ideas behind FV Gravatar Cache, it reduces the amount of external images on site.
We haven’t noticed any issues within admin section yet and the gravatars are not cached in it. One of the issues is that we would have to cache different sizes of the same gravatar.
Thanks,
Martin
