1. PR/SM does try to re-dispatch on the same CP.
2. The cache is global (IIRC) and each entry is tagged with the LPAR, as well 
as the data.
3. Cache ages as the whole processor requires it, not by LPAR.
4. MDF partitioned the cache; LPAR doesn't, since the 9672, according to my 
contacts within IBM.
