I am on M$ (XP). So, the cache that has been referred so far is the
operating system virtual memory manager caching and not something
specific to bzr. If this is the case, then the same caching concepts
will work for any application using VM. Is bzr coded differently to
make use of such a feature in a different way? I am interested in
exploring this to find out if it can help performance or just a myth.
