Caching Custom Orbs and their dependencies

Ecosystem Orbs

I have created a custom orb.
In this orb, it downloads a copy of a software that is ~ 300mb and installs it.
The software has 2 major versions and I’d like to be able to matrix the custom orb so that I can test my software on both versions.

I’d like to avoid hitting the vendors website for 600mb every time I want to run a build. Is there a way to cache this dependency and or the orbs themselves?

The orb itself is small in size and so does not need any form of caching beyond what the CircleCI platform does for such files.

As for the software you download, there is a full caching system that is described here
