I have been over the SDK documentation and can't find a function to purge the Adobe Camera Raw cache. I am writing a plugin to automate some performance testing with different configurations and image types. One of the tests is a scroll through the Library module in Loupe view. Of course there is a significant difference on some images before previews are in ACR and after.

I would like my plugin to purge the cache before every run of the test but can't find a way to do that in the SDK.

I think the plug-in could simply delete all the files in the cache folder.

...and Tatar LR to clear the in-memory cache.

It means I shouldn't type replies on my phone when I'm in a hurry. I meant:

Restart LR after deleting the files to make sure the in-memory cache is cleared too.

Is there a way to find the currently configured location of the ACR cache programatically?
