Alex Soto commented on SHRINKWRAP-496:
--------------------------------------

Sure, the story behind this change is that currently in Arquillian Cube we can create docker images \o/ with Shrinkwrap. This means that for example if I want to create an image with Wildfly (I know there is already an official image), you will need to download each time 120MB.

> In ShrinkWrap UrlAsset downloaded an asset from a URL, which can be external and then it creates the Archive element with that info. The problem is that sometimes you might want to download a big file (2MB) to put inside an Archive, and this means that for each test class that you execute you end up by downloading this file.
> A possible solution could be create a CacheUrlAsset that downloads the content and stores it in {java.io.tmp}/shrinkwrap so in successive calls before downloading the file again, it can take it directly from cache directory.
