Rendered output should be cached.
Closed, DeclinedPublicFeature

Description

We should only render a book once for each file type.

Maybe this is a storage issue at the rendering server? If so, the rendered book could be transferred to the requesting wiki.

Content will eventually become out-of-date, so we would need to define a maximum cache age. Also, it would be helpful to provide a "purge" action to force rerendering.

Currently, the rendered output of "Download as PDF" is cached on Varnish for 10 minutes. I don't think we have a place to store PDF files. Probably, this ticket refers to an old combination of Collection + electron-renderer which is not supported any more.

There is no way to download Books as PDFs - as we can generate only a single Article. I will decline this ticket, but please let me know if this is still a feature request.
