Can the cacheloader process stay alive and keep rebuilding or updating the cache metadata?

[Lucas Rolff]

I can’t think of any scenario, you’d want that – care to explain why you’d like this behaviour?

    Hi,
    
    As I understand, during startup, the cache loader process scans the files in
    the defined proxy-cache-path directories, and builds up the
    in-memory-metadata. Once the metadata is built-up, the cache loader process
    exits.
    
    Is there any mechanism by which, this cache loader process can be made to
    stay alive, so that it can maybe periodically rebuild/update the in-memory
    metadata by monitoring files in the corresponding directory?
    
    Thanks
    Rajesh
