Should I cache LoadLibrary results?

Hi,

I'm using python and ctypes to test some of my C-code (compiled to
shared libraries). Every test method starts with code like this
(pseudocode):


Class TestMyLib(unittest.TestCase):

   def test_foo:
    library_under_test = ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary('foo')

Such test cases could be about half-hundred or more (the number is
growing as time passes, of course). The time to run my tests is very
small today (less than second), so my question is purely theorethical.

Question itself: does ctypes do any sort of caching of cdll.LoadLibrary
results (for successfully loaded libraries) or should I care about not
loading the library several times?

Thanks,
Alexander
