How a web app can download and store over 2GB with...
The fact that there's a limit is not surprising. That the limit is 2GB is a little surprising, but this is across all sites, so ok. That there's no cache ejection when you reach the limit just seems like a bug. Why not use LRU?

I would not want one rogue site evicting the caches of all other sites.

It's just a cache. It can be repopulated. But I see your point, a lower per-domain quota would make more sense.

That's for the javascript engine, not necessarily for the caching.

The 2GB isn't just the local web-cache-size limit?
