Description

Sets the life-time for cached certificate stores.
Pass a number, this sets the timeout in seconds. This tells libcurl the maximum time any cached certificate store it has in memory may be kept and reused for new connections. Once the timeout has expired, a subsequent fetch requiring a certificate store will have to build a new one.
Building a certificate store from a CAINFO file (see CURL.SetOptionCAInfo) is a slow operation so curl may cache the generated certificate store internally to speed up future connections.
Set to zero to completely disable caching, or set to -1 to retain the cached store remain forever. By default, libcurl caches this info for 24 hours.
