Need an Explanation about Rolling Cache and Manual Cache

After the latest update, (1.8) my rolling cache folder was deleted and rolling cache was “off”. I saw a smoother sim frame rate?

At 200 Mb internet speed, is my streaming speed faster than my Pcie drive? At 2200 Mb/s (Pcie) obviously it isn’t. But I question the use of rolling cache? Is it really of any use if you have a good broadband?

Without testing this out, I believe they only intended us to use rolling cache if we have slow or inconsistent internet speeds. Also switching from streaming to Cache may cause stutter? Just my twopenneth?

Also, constantly writing and reading from A Pcie drive will cause more wear?

I suppose all this is down to individual preference.
