Specifically, the server saves the list of invalidated objects for the
last N transactions and the client keeps track of the last transaction
id it received an invalidation for.  One restart, if the last txn the
client saw was within N of the current transaction, the server just
sends the list of invalidated objects.  For a large cache, this is much
cheaper than having the client send the oid and serialno of every object
in the cache to the server.

N is configurable.  I think the default value is 100.
