Hi Hans,
There is caching of indexes and documents, but not all information is in
memory at all times.
There is a lot of documentation, and it's very good. But the single best
place to start is with the overall paper
https://developer.marklogic.com/inside-marklogic
It is pretty technical and covers a lot of ground, including some details
on indexing. I would start with that then ask any follow-on questions that
arise.
