No it doesn't. Because linq to objects it is just extensions that roll your enumerable into another enumerable or execute it immediately. It is easier to understand how linq works by reading this article.

There is nothing to cache in LINQ-to-Objects, which simply uses a series of extension method calls to generate a chain (or graph) of iterators. It isn't like LINQ-to-SQL, which has to compile the graph into a SQL statement before executing it.
