I want to force Nuke to use the local cache when I render in the background. 
Auto localise works great for interactive sessions but Nuke doesn’t use the 
local cache when you render from the command line. 

So if I submit the job in proxy mode and use the local file as the proxy, I can 
force it to bypass the network. It’s a hack but it work very well for my 
situation. At the moment I’m adding the proxy path manually and it’s a pain :)
