--------------------------------------------------------------

What makes you say we'll blow away our hot cache on flush?

Note that the variable is poorly named, and in fact only provides 
populateOnFlush => !skipIOCache, i.e. if true we do not explicitly DONTNEED, 
but we do not WILLNEED either. We could potentially make it a ternary operator 
(false, true, null) where true forces a WILLNEED on flush, so that the name 
actually makes sense.

> On a physical four node cluister I am doing a big write and then a big read. 
> The read takes a long time to ramp up to respectable speeds.
