            //  JVM memory spaces when repeatedly restarting Lily Runtime within the same JVM. In such cases,
            //  on each restart Lily Runtime would construct new class loaders, hence the classes loaded through
            //  them would be new and would stress those JVM memory spaces.
            //
            //  The solution here is good enough for what it is intended to do (restarting the same Lily Runtime
            //  app, unchanged, many times). There is no cache cleaning and the cache key calculation
            //  is not perfect, so if you would enable the cache when starting a wide variety of Lily Runtime
            //  apps within one VM or for reloading changed Lily Runtime apps, it could be problematic.
