Not sure about what you mean by regression here, but passing the memory
context as an argument has sense as you can remove the extra partition
bound copy, as it has sense to use an array instead of a list for
performance, which may matter if many partitions are handled when
building the cache.  So cleaning up both things at the same time would
be nice.
