If it is then sticking with the default may still be the better option as it reduces the chance of issues.';

/** * This is is like the file store, but designed for siutations where: * - many more things are likely to be stored in the cache, so CRC hashing is * too likely to give collisions, and storing everything in a completely flat * directory structure is inadvisable. * - the things we are caching are more expensive to calculate, so the extra * time to computer a better hash is a worthwhile trade-off. */
