Hello all (again!),

in the paper I am writing, I have a number of gnuplot src blocks, some
of which process a significant amount of data so take some time to
generate the actual plots.  The data are static so caching the results
make sense.  However, even though I have ":cache yes" on each of these
named src blocks, and I have (for good measure), the property
"header-args:gnuplot" set to ":cache yes" as well, the plots are being
regenerated each time I export to PDF via LaTeX.

In trying to create a minimal example (see attached), it seems that
caching stops working as soon as I add a ":var data=..." header argument
to generate a plot from a table of data.

Why does specifying a variable to a src block violate the caching
directive?  Is this intended behaviour (assuming I've understood what is
happening correctly)?

Thank you,
eric

Workaround : cache the computations,not the plotting itself (which
should be fast,and must be made on every table, anyway...) :

#+options: toc:nil author:nil

* Main text

Use of a static table:

#+call: timeit()
#+call: testplot[:file test0.pdf](data=table0)
#+call: timeit()

Use of a slow function:

#+call: timeit()
#+call: testplot[:file test1.pdf](data=table1)
#+call: timeit()

Use of a /cached/ slow function:

#+call: timeit()
#+call: testplot[:file test2.pdf](data=table2)
#+call: timeit()

* Annexes :noexport:

This is not exported, but computes results.
