Hi all, I'd like to extend this question a bit. I just read the entire performance tuning chapter again [1], and I'm a bit puzzled especially about the ObjectContext's local caches, which Andrus also recommended to use in the "A way to refreshObject()" thread:

They get refetched when a cache > group is flushed in response to an object commit. So technically you are not > reusing the snapshot cache, but it really doesn't matter.

Coming from EOF I grew the habit of frequently creating short-lived ObjectContexts, so basically every page load uses it's own new ObjectContext to get fresh data from the shared global cache, because other users may have altered data between page loads. While working on a page, I have references to the objects that I need there anyway, so I don't understand at all what that context-local cache mechanism should do for me, unless that "create new contexts all the time" strategy is just plain wrong for Cayenne-based applications? And even if I would use a longer-lived ObjectContext for something, where would that local cache get in effect? Either I have references to objects anyway, or I would need to refetch them, which would go through to the database, right? In what case would I get a benefit from a local cache? I didn't find answers to this in the Cayenne Guide.
