Mimir and RRF

Just to remind people about Mimir, and why they want to use it: if you remember the Never Say Never blog entry diagram:

sequenceDiagram
  autoNumber
  Session->>Session: lookup
  Session->>Local Repositories: lookup
  Session->>Remote Repositories: lookup

With Mimir on board, it changes to this:

sequenceDiagram
  autoNumber
  Session->>Session: lookup
  Session->>Local Repositories: lookup
  Session->>Mimir Cache: lookup
  Mimir Cache->>Remote Repositories: lookup and cache

This means, that nuking local repository is not an impediment anymore, as you still have everything in your Mimir cache, and building is as fast as with populated local repository.
