Go to SDImageCache.m and seek method - (id)initWithNamespace:(NSString *)ns There you will find such code:
// Subscribe to app events
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:@selector(clearMemory)
name:UIApplicationDidReceiveMemoryWarningNotification
object:nil];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:@selector(cleanDisk)
name:UIApplicationWillTerminateNotification
object:nil];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:@selector(backgroundCleanDisk)
name:UIApplicationDidEnterBackgroundNotification
object:nil];
Feel free to comment out or change anything if you want. I'd make an option to turn off these lines of code.
