ApplicationPool / Caching

Question

Hi,
1.)
when i use an ApplicationPool and the sessions are checking out and in the ApplicationModules, must i reset the ApplicationModules via remove or the views via reset, to prevent the next session to get get the states and the entity-cache from the previous session ?
2.)
my understanding is, that the entities work like a cache against the dbms, so when a view executes a query they executes it internaly against the entity. the entity look which rows ar in the cache and loads the missing rows from the dbms - right or wrong ?
3.)
for example when i have a view joining three tables table which exists as entity-objects the retrieved data resides in the three entity objects (A, B, C). After my query i have for example rows with the PK 1,2,3 in my entity A
when i execute a query with a PK = 1 from another viewobject that corresponds to the entity A my viewdata comes from the entity-cache and not from the dbms - right or wron g ?
4.)
when the entities work like a cache, how can i update the cache at view or entity level ??
TIA
Oliver

Great questions. Better worded than the multiple times folk have asked this on the board before. I don't recall anyone ever getting a clear response from someone who knows for sure.
I'm about to take a couple of days out of my tight schedule to try out these sort of scenarios directly and see what happens. It would save a lot of time and effort if someone knowledgable could simply tell us how it hangs together, or point us to some documentation.
That reminds me, I finally found the JDev FAQ... if the 'date last updated' is to be believed, it hasn't been updated in over a year!
