=head1 CACHING
Because the virtual systems are installed with the debootstrap
tool there can be a lot of network overhead.
To minimize this the .deb files which are downloaded into the
new instance are cached upon the host in the directory
/var/cache/apt/archives.
When a new image is created these packages are copied into the new
image - before the debootstrap process runs. This will avoid a
the expensive fetch from the network.
If you wish to clean the cache run on the host:
apt-get clean
