Being able to predict that a piece of data does not have to be cached
for very long, such as when traversing a very large data set (rdist,
rebalance, reblock) is what allows the rest of the data in the cache to
remain in the cache. This is not an easy prediction to make. Something
like an ARC implementation would do a better job making this prediction.
