How often does the jiraissues cache refresh?

Question

I've set up a few instances of the jiraissues macro recently, and thought it would be a good idea to use the cache option. But now it turns out that the cache never refreshes. Is that true, or is there a timespan after which the cache refreshes?

Because otherwise, it's very misleading to users.

This came from a Support issue raised with Atlassian. The recommendation was to NOT use the cache option on the jiraissues macro. Apparently, caching doesn't improve performance much anyway.
