Why does QFactoryLoader and QLibrary cache information in QSettings?
Does this cache information need to be available between application launches?
Is there a performance reason?
Are the reasons different from platform to platform?
Could the use of QSettings be replaced with a local QMap object?
corelib/plugin/qfactoryloader.cpp
corelib/plugin/qlibrary.cpp
We're trying to minimize (actually: eliminate) usage of QSettings so
that helper apps embedded in our Mac OS app store application don't
write to disk.
