Hi, I don't think that would work well for the purpose that query caching serves.
Query caching takes advantage of the fact that Rails is for web apps, which operate in request-response cycles. Each request starts with a clean cache. The query cache is there so that within the scope of handling a single request, if the code makes the same call multiple times (without an intervening write), it will get the same answer without having to go to the database again. If the query cache were to go across handlers, it would be impossible to know when the cache should be cleared. Clearing it when one handler is done would cause it to be cleared right in the middle of another handler. Then it wouldn't serve the purpose for which it was designed.
