Hello! I noticed that I recently stopped to get hits. I zeroed stats and this is what I see:

clcache statistics:
  current cache dir         : Disk cache at C:\Users\carlo\clcache
  cache size                : 0 bytes

Sorry for my ignorance, but I'm not finding what exactly "called for external debug" means. Can someone explain? Thanks!

I suppose it means I cannot use clcache because of #30.
