I have looked at NSCache and other related classes, but for my purposes it would be better to simply receive a low memory warning and then act on the warning. Does such a warning exist for the Mac?

No, haven't filed anything yet. Thought I'd wait to see if anything like that existed first.
My app has several tasks that collect data via a loop and display it on a table. Objects are retained as they're displayed so the objects don't have to be recalculated next time they're displayed. But if I received a low-memory warning, I could release that data, and recalculate it later if needed. Seems simple enough, but I don't know how to find out when memory is low.
