<para>The TTL in seconds for positive lookups. If a store path is queried from a substituer, the result of
the query will be cached in the local disk cache database including some of the NAR metadata. Setting a TTL
for positive lookups can be useful in case of builds that aren't reproducible, in which case having a more
frequent cache invalidation would prevent hash mismatch issues.</para>
