Wich shows this:

 1.) It's more easy to reimplement such a function than to find it in the
     forest of docs or class API.
 2.) It's not in the class you expect it. 

For time based object caching I would expect a setting in COA, USER class
etc. 

 10 = COA
 10.cachingPeriod = 3600

I would not search for this function in a page class.
