It depends on what you're trying to do here, but caching is normally not
required.

How long does it take to download a small graphic or static text/html
file to your appli?
If that's fast then you have indeed a problem on the server side. If
that also takes 20 secs, then I'd spend some time looking at the appli
source instead.


If you're using DoJa then I guess your code looks similar to the source
below, is that correct?
static byte[] immediateGet(String p_location) throws Exception {
byte[] x_data = null;
InputStream i = null;
HttpConnection c = null;

try {
	c = (HttpConnection) Connector.open(m_url + p_location,
Connector.READ, true);
	c.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.GET);
	c.connect();
	i = c.openInputStream();
	x_data = handleResponse(c, i);
}
catch (Exception e) {
	throw new Exception("Exception occurred");
}
finally {
	if (i != null) {
		try {
			i.close();
		}
		catch (Exception e) {
		}
	}
	if (c != null) {
		try {
			c.close();
		}
		catch (Exception e) {
		}
	}
}
return x_data;
}

With the above routine, it takes typically 3-6 seconds to set up an
connection from your phone. From the emulator it's almost instant so we
concluded that this delay is caused by going through Docomo's systems
rather than the webserver. you're talking to. After the initial
connection has been established, uploads and downloads are pretty fast.

Anyway, you should be able to find more information on this on the web
and in (Japanese) DoJa programming book.
