Where’s the cache bar like the green one in After Effects?

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hi,

Sorry if this is an extreme noob question…I’m an AE user and I’m trying to switch to Nuke. One of the things I have noticed is when I play something it won’t display the green cache bar to see whats loaded to play. While the time line plays it will suddenly slow down at a part where it’s not cached but not let you know where that will be happening.

Is there any sort of cache bar in Nuke?

Thanks
