To achieve great performance AbanteCart utilize caching of commonly used database queries and requests. This page will allow you to clear cache settings for different internal AbanteCart aspects.

Clearing images cache will force your server to use more resources to regenerate images on next storefront page visit. This may slow down first-time page load and high CPU usage on the server.
