this will most likely not have the desired effect as the cache does not include files so those will fail. worse the cache can open you to really nasty edge cases where you have a catalog compiled for one set of manifests+files but if its reused later you might be getting files from a newer code base which will really spoil your day. The static catalog compiler thing will help with some of this - though still not for a offline master - but it has many bugs and questionable implementation mechanics :( You really want to think very very carefully before using the cache in production.
