But how about those benefits. Is there caching or no?

No, there isn't.

There are a lot of gated features, the most useful of which is a low quality proxy that transcends CGNAT and Firewalls when you really need to share a video but don't have a real ip.

Gating hardware encoding is a pretty dick maneuver IMO.
