Per the bottom paragraph here shinyapps.io Documentation - Storage, I'd like to add a request to add persistant storage to shiny.

For me, having a disk cache that doesn't go away when an instance shuts down would be a big performance gain.

Thanks for the feedback. Could you please describe more about the type of application you have deployed and how persistent storage would improve how people interact with it?

Using caching for render outputs (bindCache()) is useful to speed up apps. But without persistant storage, once the instance stops after being idle for a while, the disk cache is cleared, meaning that the performance gain is lost when a new instance is started.

I have multiple leaflet maps that take 7-10 seconds to render fresh, and usually 2-4 when there is cached version already in existence.
