Robert,

 GribServiceProvider.setIndexAlwaysInCache( true) did not work because
 GribServiceProvider is deprecated, you should be using:

 GribGridServiceProvider()  so use

 GribGridServiceProvider.setIndexAlwaysInCache( true );

 In the CDM, all classes in iosp/grib have been deprecated except
GribGridServiceProvider, GribBinaryIndexer, and Grib2Netcdf. The 
deprecated grib classes can be found in the iosp/grid directory. In TDS 
4.2 the deprecated classes will be removed.

I will fix the documentation on the web and in the repository.

Robb...
