Cached instances prioritised over db refresh

[Naith]

Hey,

Any of you guys know whether it's possible to configure CE to refresh an object against the database only if there are no instances in the cache which match the relevant parameter?

In the case of a cached instance matching the current parameters, that instance should be returned instead of hitting the db.

I'm not worried about instances being stale or anything, because refreshed instances only need to be generated like once a month.

Thanks,

Naith
