   > this doesn't really make sense for position delete files
   
   @RussellSpitzer, just curious, why wouldn't it make sense? A position delete 
file contains deletes for many data files, and per my benchmark results, 
caching the whole file can be almost as fast as a single selective read 
(default settings + the rehashing issue fixed). With the default target delete 
file size at 64 MB, position delete files are most probably referenced by 
multiple data files. This means that whenever a read operation (not only 
compaction) requires at least two data files referencing the same position 
delete file, the cache speeds up the operation. Am I missing something? Again - 
just curious to understand, as I don't currently use position deletes myself.
