Request is not cached. It is result that be cached, which is the merged-view. And the cache is connected to the dir inode. As long as the uniqness of the inode (its inode number) is maintained, you will be able to reuse the cache and gain its effect. Although it is already described in the aufs manual and documents, I will refine it when I have time. J. R.
