Just out of curiosity, are there any of these 3rd party github action runner services that support persistent disks or have some kind of very fast local cache that can be shared across runners? The majority of time in my workflows is spent downloading the same docker images and dependencies to the runner over and over. I've found Github's own cache to be fairly slow and lackluster.

We already have a local container cache for speeding up dockerhub pulls.

Automated container layer caching is coming in ~2 weeks.

This will be present transparently so you'll be able to get the goodness with zero changes to your current actions.

sounds great, will definitely check it out in the new year!
