http

If I have a HTTP based RESTful service and I want to POST a search resource and use the PRG pattern for returning the URL to the search-result resource, I have to persist the search-result resource on the server.

Is this a good idea?

If I do persist the search-result resource how long is it persisted for?

Can I control this by a HTTP header of some kind?

Cheers
