I'm not clear whether you are talking about caches of what items are 
available or a cache of what items are being used. If it is for what items 
are being used in a project then don't get rid of the local cache. Items 
used in a project may be in a global library but global libraries may 
change. I don't want changes in global libraries affecting the version of 
items I'm using in an existing project.
