Hi,
could anybody provide some information about the new registry value "SupportBranchCache" in HF4 ?
No hint on About Client Configuration Settings in TechNet library.

When “SupportBranchCache” is off, multi-range requests will almost always be used for HTTP streaming. When it is on and the client detects that the host is capable of taking advantage of branch cache (even if no files are actually being served from branch cache) then HTTP requests will generally be single-range to allow branch cache to kick in (if it is set up).

Hello,
I would assume this would enable or disable the client to use SupportBranchCache, but then again that is just a guess.
