Symptoms
- An application appears to take up more disk space than anticipated.
Cause
The network transfer layer caches information for network messages. This information takes up unwanted space. Since iOS10, this overhead has become significant and can impact dramatically on the expected footprint of smaller application installations.
Resolution
There is currently no direct way to prevent this from happening. However, you can patch the trampoline as a workaround.
In Classes/Unity/WWWConnection.mm, add the following method override after the @synthesize declarations:
- (NSCachedURLResponse*)connection:(NSURLConnection*)connection willCacheResponse:(NSCachedURLResponse*)cachedResponse
{
return nil;
}
This should prevent the network transfer layer from caching network messages.
