Yes, it is. There's an emergency variable, `org-element-use-cache' to disable it, but it should be used for debugging purpose only. From the user point of view, if the cache appears to be corrupted due to a bug, it may be simpler to call `org-element-cache-reset'. > If so, does it come with some inconveniency? As every cache, you pay the full price the first time you fill it. For example, there may be a small overhead when opening an Org file. Most editing operations only remove the current element from the cache, but some of them (mostly operations on blocks and drawers boundaries) delete larger parts of it. As such, these are more expensive than the average. > If not, should we simply activate it all the time? We really should. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
