Description
cuCIM.CuImage object has the capability of cache handling but it is disabled by default so WSIReader is not taking advantage of it. It would be beneficial for some training pipelines to support caching. Here is an explanation of caching in cuCIM and how to work with it: https://github.com/rapidsai/cucim/blob/branch-22.10/notebooks/Welcome.ipynb
