I know that you know this, but to clarify the terms for those that may be confused, cavitation occurs in a liquid pump when either a dissolved gas is brought out of solution or the liquid evaporates. Both conditions occur under high vacuum on the impeller inlet. Liquid droplets in a normally gaseous fluid can't really be called cavitation.
I was more speaking of mechanical damage by fatigue loading.
