In reality those caches are going to be relatively meaningless except for short bursts of speed, because the 100,000 API calls and user/kernel switches, that windows does because of absurd abstractions, that happen in the time slice yo

You should see the garbage FD-mount stuff I had when I was a starving teenager. Hell, the camera's aperture arm only worked about 30% of the time. The stuff from then that has survived til today is the survivorship bias.
