Expected / Desired Behavior / Question

Many of the PNP JS functions allow for the chained usingCaching. Although search has an internal caching layer, this is useful for reducing server roundtrips. Given the utility of search for producing rollups, usingCaching would be similarly beneficial for the fluent search API.

The big issue here is we don't do caching currently for any non-get requests. This is because anything else is usually an action that changes something. For search this isn't true, BUT does mean we need a way to carve out a flag or something to allow caching non-get requests. Will see what this takes to implement, but can't promise we will add it. Def get what you mean though, thanks for the idea!

Had a look tonight, yep, we can do this. In fact, if you install beta v1.1.5-5 you can try it out now :) docs here. Let us know what you think!

Yessir, works beautifully and now I've got a nice, snappy interface! Thanks for the fast response.
