It doesn't explicitly cache the disc image to RAM, but it contains a lot of other performance improvements. CPU emulation and disc access run in sequence, so improvements to either one will help if the performance of either is a problem. Also, if you want to test and compare the performance of the build I linked which does disc access in parallel instead, you will need to test a recent development version first so that you have a reference build with similar CPU emulation performance.
