I don't think any filesystem function puts entries into the group-level caches. Those caches are for forest fragments, not filesystem data. Other caches do use filesystem data: the module cache, for example.
Here's a quick test of the group-level caches: xdmp:cache-status()/*/*/*:partition-used/data(.), xdmp:document-get( '/tmp/admin.xqy') /string-length(.), xdmp:cache-status()/*/*/*:partition-used/data(.), current-dateTime() => 3.7 23.4 0.4 469712 3.7 23.4 0.4 2012-02-14T10:46:56.723969-08:00 >From what I can tell, xdmp:external-binary is just a way to call document-get >and subbinary together.
