Thanks, I'll try that.

Well, according to Process Explorer, it is actually doing useful work.
It appears to be scanning all the checked out files, and the evidence
that it is reading them in their entirety is that the Read I/O stats are
in the gigabytes! (My checked out repository is about 10Gb, and I've
got three checked out copies of it).
So, I'm confused, unless the cache process is generating checksums from
the contents of the file, or something, why does it need to scan the
entire contents? I thought that it could just use filesize and
time/date stamps. Is that not the case?
