Document how to use this in typical CI runners

[mattip]

This is great! Could you open a space in the README or other documentation to demonstrate using this in Ci runners like travis, azure pipelines, or github actions which are used in many open source projects? The CI runner documentation about best practices with caching is not always clear: when a cache actually saves CI bandwidth and when it doesn't.

Sure, I'll get on it. An issue is running a persistent program on these runners: as far as I know, only BYO runners (where the user has full control over the server) can run these programs effectively

[mattip]

ahh, so this won't work with travis :( ?

Not unless you can use your own runners on Travis (which you can with Enterprise Travis). In any case, Travis already supplies a different form of caching for pip: see their documentation

OK, feel free to close this then.
