Exim caches list look results, so repeated use gets an efficincy
benefit. There is no efficiency benefit from using a named list
per se; they are just syntactic sugar to make writing the config
less verbose.

However... specifically for your case, the cache lookup uses the
filename of the search-definition, and then checks the options -
so if you mix (in your case) ret=key and plain, the caching is
inoperative. That could be a future enhancement.

But: unless you are using +local_domains in some more-complex
manner than most people, it seems like you could put ret=key
in that definition.
