That's right. Roller caches the weblog pages and feeds that it
produces. Take a look at the cache configuration section in
roller.properties (4.0 install guide, section 11) and you can see that
there are four caches that you can configure:

   sitewide: for site-wide blog and feeds
   weblogpage: for ordinary weblog pages
   weblogfeed: for ordinary feed pages
   planet: for planet feeds
