Well, it isn't a great idea; you are not obliged to do anything in
prefetch: if your file is of unbounded or unreasonably size, I would
keep a journal of "changes" in the setter methods, then stream through
the file and apply the changes from the journal on the way through.
Most configuration files are small enough that we can afford the risk,
though: if they are more than a meg or two in size, something very odd
has happened.

I didn't realize you were targetting such an ancient version, so I
don't know off hand. A quick check shows that core providers are
depending on flush, though, so I think I can safely say yes. :)
