Does the caching service have any usage quotas?
Once you provision a cache of a certain size, the service limits the amount data you put in the cache to that size. If you try to put more data into the cache than the size you provisioned, the caching service will automatically remove data to make space for the new data that you are adding. The data deletion process is asynchronous and follows the least-recently-used (LRU) policy. The process also runs in a controlled manner to achieve maximum efficiency. Because of this, your application might temporarily have more data in the cache than the size for which you signed up, but the system will soon take corrective action and delete data from your cache to keep your cache size within the provisioned size. As with other services in the Windows Azure platform, in order to make sure there is fair usage of resources, the service might enforce limitations based on the number of transactions being made against the cache, the total bandwidth being consumed, or the number of concurrent connectio
