The commandlet is run via the cmdline '-run=VirtualizationEditor.PrecachePayloads' (the VirtualizationEditor part will load the module before executing the PrecachePayloads commandlet)
At the moment this is very slow to run as the VA API only allows one payload to be pulled in a single call and although we can make requests on many threads, there is a lot of overhead when requesting data from some backends and a batch pull API would be substantially quicker. This will be looked at in a future work item.
There are currently 4 different ways we can iterate over the payloads and precache them, since the commandlet is still too slow to use in general production, the different ways of iterating are provided so we can experiment later.
There is no way to customize what is precached, we just iterate over all the packaged in a project. We might want to improve this in the future but it would perhaps make more sense to move the package iteration options from the resave commandlet and make it something general purpose that different commandlets can also use. This would help build up a consistent way of choosing which packages are affected by a commandlet.
