|  | The query SQL cache is a <code class="classname">Map</code> used to cache | 
|  | pushed-down SQL query strings for the find operation.  As a result, | 
|  | the SQL queries are only generated once in OpenJPA, and cached thereafter. | 
|  | This query SQL cache is shared across entity managers and the fetch plan | 
|  | is part of the cache key. You can control the SQL cache through | 
|  | the <a href="ref_guide_conf_jdbc.html#openjpa.jdbc.QuerySQLCache" title="6.10.  openjpa.jdbc.QuerySQLCache"><code class="literal"> | 
|  | openjpa.jdbc.QuerySQLCache</code></a> configuration property.  This |

|  | Plugin Configuration | 
|  | ”</a>) | 
|  | describing the <code class="classname">Map</code> used to associate query strings and |
