Entity framework code first caching

Question

It is possible to use the Entity framework caching and tracing framework with the new entity framework 4.1 code first? If so then is there a good example of this, otherwise what is the best way to cache some queries?

Good question, I'm curious at your outcome. I have limited caching in my MVC3 web app in which I used EF 4.1. I implemented caching at the website layer for dropdowns and common psuedo-static lookup sets. I use built-in ASP.NET Cache to cache collections returned from calls to my service layer (which may soon be on it's own physical tier). Works well for me but is obviously a very simple scenario. — kingdango

Here is an example of a caching system for EntityFramework (with EDMX) http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/EFProviderWrappers-c0b88f32

Here is how you use that example with CodeFirst http://jkowalski.com/2010/04/23/logging-sql-statements-in-entity-frameworkcode-first/

Although he is demoing the tracing provider rather than the caching provider you can use the same principals
