Is there any special configuration needed? The cache is shared between all works in the same process.

Yes, the disk cache is shared. As I've already mentioned this week, in many circumstances the disk cache will outperform the memory cache because it offloads the work of cache and memory management to the highly-optimized kernel filesystem code. A modern OS will keep frequently-accessed parts of the cache in the buffer cache, so you don't suffer a speed penalty from the disk access.
