File caching, obviously.  Current VM is not that good at handling
streaming a bunch of files through an application.  Well, it
agressively caches the file for the application itself, too bad it
doesn't care about them anymore after one load, and meanwhile swaps
out whatever is on the computer too.

  OG.
