Sure, it could be done like this for instance.

cache directory
* Render the page using the file from the cache directory
A (minor?) problem with this approach is chosing a good threshold value.
Don't know how long this would take to implement, but the MimeTeX recipe
already has this framework as it's used to cache the images that are
generated based on math formulas.
Let me know if you think this is needed, otherwise I'll let it rest for
now.
