That sounds obvously great.

Would it make sense to move out handling of persistent caches
into a separate file persisent_cache.c? Although the semantics of the
corresponding functions in reading.c and owl.c differ in details, I
think there is enough duplicated code to make this worth doing.
(Some parts, in particular computation of the the relevant active area, will
of course remain separate.)
E.g. I considered adding a hash table to the persistent reading cache
so that is size could be increased to 1000. That could be useful for
the connections, too.
