Is "cache" the same as the memcache setting?  That setting is 
deprecated with the latest release, isn't it?  Also, I'm not sure about 
this either -- so forgive me if this is out of whack, but cache 
(memcache?) have the function of taking into RAM data that will be 
streamed to the AFS cell?  That is, file transfers are first spooled 
from disk to RAM then to network?
