Browser Cache
Browser Cache is a temporary storage place in your system that is used by browser. When we visit a web page, it downloads a copy of the page in this temporary location. It downloads html page, JavaScript files, CSS files and images. When we next time request for the same web page, browser checks this temporary storage and see whether the local exists or not. If it found the local copy of the page, it served the page from local copy. This process save your internet bandwidth and loads web page faster. Hence, cache is very useful for people using slow internet connection.
Why we need to clear the cache
As we surf the web, this cache storage grows. Sometimes it crosses the 100 MB size. The fact is that we can not limit the size of browser cache. At this moment, it takes time to check for local copy because of huge size. This makes web browsing slow. Many times, website has been updated but we are still getting older cache version. These are few reasons why we need to clear browser cache.
