Patches 3 and 4 look good to me except that for me, a cache is something
that lets us avoid an expensive computation. But as far as I know, we're
not planning to perform the expensive computation in the absence of a
cache. Maybe the word "record" would fit better.

This is nit-picky, though, and if others think that the word "cache"
fits here, that's fine by me too.

Thanks. I switched the commit messages around to use 'record' and 'hint'
when appropriate instead. I'll send a reroll with those nits as soon as
it passes CI.
