Create a folder with more than 500 images in the Joomla Media Manager. Add the following to the .htaccess:
Oops, I can't insert source code here? Use a picture instead
Connect your PC to a smartphone with a poor internet connection!
I now expect that after calling up the folder once, all images/graphics are saved in the browser cache
J4 attaches a timestamp to "EVERY" image/graphic, which bypasses the .htaccess rules.
PHP 8.3.8
10.11.4-MariaDB
J5.1.1
I got this Issue last Year an i think, it was fixed. But it seems not so:
#40787
I love Joomla, but I work a lot on the road and have image folders with a lot of content. I recently became desperate because I could no longer select images while on the road. The connection to the internet was bad and the Joomla media manager completely reloaded the images every time. Working was not possible because the media manager always bypassed the settings in the .htaccess with the timestamp behind each graphic.
Fortunately, I was able to get help:
https://forum.joomla.de/thread/18614-der-media-manager-in-j4-ist-suboptimal-timestamp-bei-bilder/?postID=132406#post132406
Suggestion: Why don't you just add a timestamp only to the pictures/graphics that were actually edited? Then it will work again and I think that will not only reduce the traffic on the Internet, but will also be a great thing for many people.

Does the PHP ini value "disable_functions" contain any fileinfo functions?
@richard67 i checked this:
But what occurred to me (because it is not immediately noticeable and you are asking me about system parameters), the phenomenon occurs with the change from PHP 8.2 to 8.3. I will switch back and test whether it is perhaps due to PHP 8.3

Back from holiday - after returning to PHP 8.2 I noticed an improvement. However, I cannot say 100 per cent whether this is related to PHP 8.3

There are several "issues" here
Images in the media manager are NOT cached - this is by design and per user requests - otherwise users will not see changed images in the media manager until the cache is cleared. Nothing can be done to change this.
.
Images in the media manager are displayed as small thumbnail sized images but we are still loading the potentially huge image in order to display the tiny image. This we can resolve
All you have to do is to enable the thumbnail image generation option in the filesystem - local plugin. Real thumbnail images will now be generated automatically and used in the media manager.
Could you visit the page

your_domain/administrator/index.php?option=com_admin&view=sysinfo
and report if you have an entry forfileinfo
?Should look like
If not you need to ask your host to enable the PHP module
