[Exist-open] Persist the cache?

[Gary L. <gar...@en...>]

I'm not sure it this is off the wall or not.
 
To deal with inital query performance as the cache gets populated I initally
thought of running some queries at startup.
 
Another alternative may be to persist the contents of the cache at shutdown
and load the cache from the file (if it exists) at startup.  Does that make
any sense?
 
If so, do you have any hints on where shutdown lives, how to reference the
cache, and is the cache serializable?
