This release introduces calibration result caching. It should make using the plugin smoother over time as you accumulate calibration results for models that you use often. It speeds up the calibration for any previously used combinations of model and plugin parameters. 

It took quite a bit of figuring out and testing, and it should work without any issues. If you encounter anything weird due to a cached result being loaded, or if some error is posted to the log, let me know! You can tell if the plugin loads a cached result if it doesn't start simulating gravity in different directions, but just ends the calibration.

There's a caveat - the plugin still needs to freeze the scene and load the calibration pose to be able to match the current breast/glute shape to a saved result. It's impossible to get an accurate read on the shape without a standardized pose where the scene is frozen.

To get around that issue and enable calibration data to be loaded instantly without the freeze, I could add a functionality that couples a given cached result with an appearance preset path, and it would be up to the user to do the coupling for specific appearance presets and make sure to update the cached result when the preset is modified. But I'm not sure if that's necessary, it could be veering into the territory of overengineering :)

Listen, I know the instant load option would probably be a bit of overengineering, as you put it, but I for one would absolutely love that option. I reuse a few models a LOT, not to mention having a couple different morph sets for some of them, so an instant calibration would be great.
