So they built a cache of cell sites and it turns out it was too large, 2MiBs.

BTW, I'm looking at my cache 226KiB (cells.plist from 3.1.3) and it goes back almost a year. I guess some engineer pulled a figure out of the air and thought 2MiB should be just enough.

I hope this doesn't change the way Apple releases software updates. Where it becomes a Microsoftian adventure of developers, compliance officers and product managers all having to sign off on what color the sleep icon should be.
