I'm saying so because even if there is no provided API to do so, if you 
work at a low level (requires messing with the memory management also) 
there must be a way to achieve it. Also a non-intrusive but naive way is 
also to perform repeated prefetching so that you keep the lines at the 
top of the LRU.
