Caching of subframe is supported, the objects need to have property SimulationSettings and option Cache All Simulation Samples checked. Pointclouds have this property by default. Polymeshes will have it if you create a simulated ICETree.

Also it has no subframe functionality. Unless there is a coding way to do it I'm a bit disappointed on this new feature since its limited to be used for import/export and no point cache workflow between animation and rendering disciplines. :(
