Description
The cache was previously only work on in-memory data.
Now that with LiquidEviction, we also need to read from disk. This means that we need to plague all of our caching code with async nonsense... But whatelse can we do?

Research direction
Start by tracing the repository's caching code and the LiquidEviction path that reads from disk. Determine which cache operations must become asynchronous and how broadly the change affects callers; done means disk-backed caching works without blocking and the affected caching code is consistently async.
