Fields is not part of the cache key

I didn't have the opportunity to go very far on this, but I suspect the cache is not usable.
I think "fields" query string parameter is not part of the key - so the first call will be cached and returned no matter which fields are specified (if any) on subsequent requests. I'll dig some more when i have some spare time and maybe suggest a patch.

Not sure what you mean by that. There is no caching involved here. Basically all it does is break down the field parameter(s) to use a standard Django ORM query using only() and select_related() for FKs.

It's the cache property on Resource class http://django-tastypie.readthedocs.org/en/v0.9.11/caching.html#simplecache
I have to replicate a simple setup with memcache backend, SpecifiedFields.cache set to SimpleCache and I will update this issue.
