I haven't said anything different. The test is simple as i already 
stated in my very first post.

Still - an option to reduce the memory footprint, when the additional 
data is not needed, would be nice.

Btw. the situation becomes relevant, when you have one or only few 
resources that are not cachable and will hit much more frequently than 
all the other resources.
