In order to avoid often swapping, size of memory cache is adjustable. It is
percentage of image size. If you know that some effect use values within
some distance from current pixel you can adjust cache to best size
(differently for each source: red, blue, green, normals, ipoints, depth, uv)
and engine tries follow calculations with content of this cache.

followups to p.u.p
