This statement is very closely related to my earlier question about
mechanisms. When you use the term "mapping" above, what exactly do you
mean:

  1. A GPT?
  2. Some other cache that is somehow constructed from a GPT?

The entire mapping DB is something that I am still failing to understand
adequately.
