Reading issue http://drupal.org/node/970810 caching for admin super users is not planned by design, but I think it would be a nice feature for development purposes.
Sometimes I've to install Drupal on a slow machine and as admin super user I don't like to wait 10 seconds for each request, especially when I'm doing some development experiments.
It would be nice to have a switch for enabling and disabling caching for admin users (perhaps using the settings.php). Together with some documentation warnings like "enabling caching for admin users might cause some unexpected side effects" it might be a nice feature.
I agree, this feature is nothing for productive web sites, but it might be useful for development.

Comment #1
simg commentedI agree with you.
This is now the case in the 7.x-1.x version, but I'm loathe to make changes to the 6.x version. (I know Jonah, the original developer of authcache doesn't like this feature and I don't want to tread on his toes...)
Comment #2
Helmut Neubauer commentedPerhaps it's possible to provide an optional patch for this feature in Drupal 6.x (adding to this issue) for those, who absolutely need this feature (if it is not too much work)?
Comment #3
simg commentedwell, for those people who absolutely need any given feature, it's worth mentioning that I'm freelancer with bills to pay !
That said, try this patch. It might very well work - but not tested.
