WebClient caching support

Would WebClient caching work in an Appharbor hosted application?

e.g.

WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.CachePolicy = new RequestCachePolicy(RequestCacheLevel.Revalidate);
client.DownloadData("http://site.com/resource");

Would cache the resource if supported by the server and use Temporary Internet Files for storing the cached copy.

Would this work on Appharbor given that disk write access is restricted?

Thanks!

    That's a pretty good question. I've done some experiments on AppHarbor and the caching is effective for RequestCacheLevel.CacheIfAvailable, but the cache is not stored where one would expect.

    If you need more details, it might make more sense to post this question on Stackoverflow.
