 When ruby find a method, after a lookup, it store it in the cache. When it
 need to call a method, it first look in the cache if it's not found it
 make a lookup to find the method.

 The entries in the cache can be invalided when there is a modification (by
 id, by class, or global undef)

 A better description is given in eval.c (warning it's written in C not in
 English :-))
