This module rampantly loves to flush all the caches Drupal has all that hard work we have trie to make sure our views are cached for 6hrs. All out blocks are cached etc, etc. And after pulling all my hair out i find this module simply wipes the cache on each file upload.

At very least put this in the documentation and on the modules front page warning people it does so.

pfff... now to figure out how to get rid of this from our stack.

Thank you for your thoughts. Like every standard entity type in Drupal that exposes a public-facing page for form, any entity operation done through the UI will clear the page cache. This is nothing new to File Entity, it's just the fact that we make File entities work like all the others.
