translation problem

Hi to all,

I am translating manual/caching.xml (branche 2.2) for the
french 
translation project and I encounter a problem translating
"But then this 
is the point of caching content in the first place"
(line 110) because I 
don't really understand the meaning of the phrase, regarding
its context.

Any help would be appreciated

Happy week-end to all

Lucien

The lines above that statement discuss how a cached resource
is  
served based on a URL comparison.  No other processing
stages take  
place, like (as the page mentions) URL manipulation by
mod_proxy or  
mod_rewrite, or authorization, dynamic content generation
(PHP, CGI,  
JSP) etc.

The point (see <http://www.m-
w.com/dictionary/point>, mostly 1 and 3)  
of caching a resource is to do the expensive stuff (fetching
from a  
back-end proxy, regular expression based rewrites, running a
 
scripting language to generate a page based on database
information)  
once, put the result in the cache and serve it from the
cache on  
subsequent requests.

Thanks for helping out with the translation.

S.
