Hi Nelz, while in general I agree with you, there can be situations where something like that is really useful. In case of multiple data center deployments, you want to keep caches warm in stand-by data center(s). This can be achieved by having database replication do this job but it may be hard if what's you cache is not raw result sets but "post processed" data.
