Doctrine ODM Document Reuse

Question

Scenario: In my PHP slim app, I have a class which is used for validation and if that passes I then use a "controller" to perform RESTful style updates.

My question is: If I perform a query and then in an unrelated part of the code perform a query that returns some of/all of the same documents. Does the doctrine document manager reuse the previously retrieved documents?

Thanks in advance! Ben

Doctrine can be extended to use object caches like Redis to reduce the hits to the database.

We also have added code to our data access layer to reduce queries - this is upstream from Doctrine.
