TSVNCache questions

Hi - I have a couple three questions regarding the TSVN Cache:

When defining exclusions or inclusions for the Icon overlays, we have found that it is best to exclude all drives that do not have a working copy on them (C:\* F:\*, etc) and to specifically include the the path for the working repo itself (D:\svn-local\*). Given this, my first question is:

1. Is it better to check or uncheck "Fixed Disks" in the Drive Types section? Normally I keep all options unchecked as I do not want the cache to troll the other drive types at all. However, I assumed that in order for the inclusions and exclusions to work the "Fixed Disks" would have to be checked. That does not seem to be the case, however.

2. Sometimes a use will complain that their 'SVN' stopped responding. I get on their machine and discover that indeed, you cannot do anything in the file explorer. When I manually kill the TSVNCache process though, everything is operational again, and quite speedy. Why does TSVNCache hang like that? What is it doing?

and lastly...

3. I couldn't find a section in the TSVN online docs discussing the TSVN Cache. Will their be a section dedicated to it eventually? I'd love to see a best practices doc at least. Thanks!
