Bitmap caching

Bitmap caching places commonly used bitmaps, such as the one that displays the Start button, in a file on the client computer. This improves performance by minimizing the amount of display information that must be passed over a connection.

Bitmap caching is enabled on a per-session basis from the client software and requires 10MB of free hard-drive space on the client computer.
