The cache will not take immediately into effect. It is designed to save your cache disk and to load only repetitive data. Try to run your benchmark 20 times and you will notice slight improvement over reading the same object. Of course , you can use lvm cache in writethrough mode, but then it is recommended to use 2 cache disks (raid1 or lvm mirroring) .
