  In the big picture: It's the only way to engineer a system where search responses are never slow except for last mile network issues. Which of course means, never "hitting disk." And not worrying too much about quality. Of course Premium doesn't change the caching infrastructure, just the economic calculus of competing preferences between the viewer and the advertisers when it comes to content recommendation.
