But since include files are considered 'volatile' because they could change on disk from moment to moment, we check the modification date first to see if we need to reload it.Databases are considered to be completely controlled by WebCatalog, so we never check the disk for mod dates, which is why lookup could be faster.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
