yeah, sorry, I meant LWP::Simple::get() :-)
I wasn't sure if LWP::Simple did any caching since there wasn't any mention
of it in perldoc LWP::Simple. In general, can I assume that an omission of
a feature related to a function means that it doesn't exist? eg I think
it's reasonable to assume that there might have been some built-in caching
provided with LWP::Simple::get() even if there was no mention of it.

What get() are you referring to? LWP::Simple::get? LWP::Simple::get
doesn't do any caching; if it did, it would be clearly documented in perldoc
LWP::Simple :)
