cache_discovery=False intermittently still returns cache images even though it's set to false.

Does cache_discovery cache images? It looks like it caches the discovery doc which currently may or may not cause Google's Python client library to do anything.

Cache discovery has nothing to do with image caching. Discovery is Google's service for getting more information on what API's are needed to use with the library. If you disable cache_discovery (cache_discovery=False), every API request for images search will last longer because lib will not use cached api definitions, but will query api definitions first (using Google's Discovery API)...
