Caching

All SocialMediaProvider::getFeed() calls are cached for 15 minutes and can be cleared either in the CMS or by appending ?socialfeedclearcache=1 in developer mode.

There is also a SocialFeedCacheTask that you can setup as a cronjob on your server to ensure that the end-user never has to wait for your server to make its API calls to Facebook, Twitter, etc and update the various social feed caches.

Alternatively, if you're using the QueuedJobs module, this process will be handled automatically for you, as a queued job is setup to update the cache every 10 minutes.
