CRL Cache
When a client performs Certificate revocation checking it's my understanding the CRL is cached in the CryptoAPI cache. Is this cache a memory cache or disk cache? Meaning, does the client cache the CRL for the validity period regardless of a reboot
or upon each reboot the CryptoAPI cache is purged and the client re-downloads the CRL?
Thanks,

This is indeed a great download! A must-read!

I've written this blog post more than a year ago, but I guess it's still valuable enough for most people.
