ObjectStore as a cache

Point back here for some discussion http://www.psdn.com/library/thread.jspa?threadID=3003&tstart=0&start=15

I'm not sure what, exactly, in that discussion is relevant to the question. There is an obvious need for caching in a variety of contexts and, with a single threaded session, one doesn't really want to cache within a session since that gives the session state. Instead, one would like to share cache among a group of related sessions on the same system. So, the question I was raising is whether it was possible to use ObjectStore to store an ABL object as it is, thus avoiding the need for marshalling and demarshalling to and from an RDBMS database. This would not be for persistence. Or at least it need not be.
