Abstract
A method, data processing system, and computer program product for caching information. A computer determines whether at least one of a client data processing system and a hardware device in a plurality of hardware devices has performed a number of operations that have been identified as being associated with a request that is sent to a first hardware device in the plurality of hardware devices. The first hardware device is configured to obtain information from a second hardware device in the plurality of hardware devices for use in generating a response to the request. The computer caches the information in a cache for the plurality of hardware devices prior to a subsequent request for the information being sent to the first hardware device in response to a determination that the at least one of the client data processing system and the hardware device has performed the number of operations.
