Problem summary
The "disable blink cache" preference has a misleading name and tooltip.
The documentation describes the preference as doing the following:
When enabled, nodes that support GPU caching pass on the GPU data to the last node that supports GPU caching and then transfer all the data back to the CPU at once.
In order to enable blink caching, the preference needs to be disabled which is potentially confusing.
