Please forgive me for being pedantic:

Scott C, do you envision for "caching"

a) writing to disk the metadata for an entity each time it has
been fetched successfully to be used to accomplish a SAML flow

or

b) periodically downloading an aggregate that contains all of
the entities (since we expect aggregates to stay around for
some time) and writing it to the side on disk but not using it
except when detecting that MDQ queries are failing (hence not
having to take up memory when not necessary).

or

c) some combination of (a) and (b)

or

d) other

Thanks,

Scott K
