Would it be bad practise to temp cache session's "/whoami" endpoint result, using redis, to reduce api calls being made to Ory? For example cache for 10 seconds, encrypt the data and cache by request cookies?

If you’re using the Ory Network paid account, they provide CDN caching for sessions. In local testing, I’ve implemented in-memory caching to speed things up.
