Description

Cache consolidation allows you to improve the performance of ArcGlobe by reducing the number of disk caches that are stored and displayed for an ArcGlobe document. Cache consolidation is only available for group layers in ArcGlobe. There are two options for cache consolidation: rasterizing the group layer or merging child caches.

Rasterizing the group layer option is also known as map consolidation. Rasterizing a group layer consolidates the child layers into a single cache, rendering them as a single raster layer with a single cache. All the child layers within the rasterized group layer must also be rasterized. Any child layers that were not rasterized before will become rasterized when the option is set to True. In this way, the group layer will be drawn similar to how it is drawn in ArcMap.
