How many is "a lot"?

Both play along together quite nicely..

if you have a "no_cache deny all", then you don't really have a need of
a cache directory and the "null" cache dir type comes in handy saving
you from having to create a cache directory..

Without no_cache the null cache_dir type only allows objects to be
cached in memory.
