Explanation
Snowflake's result set cache has three key characteristics aligned with options B, C, and F. (B) Query results are cached and persisted for 24 hours after they are generated. (C) Each time a cached result is reused, the 24-hour retention clock resets, effectively extending the cache lifetime for frequently repeated queries. (F) The result set cache is not shared across virtual warehouses - each warehouse's cached results are scoped to that warehouse context. Option A is incorrect because Time Travel queries bypass the cache. Option D is incorrect - cached results are stored in Snowflake's cloud services layer at no extra storage cost to the customer. Option E is incorrect - there is no documented 31-day maximum cap on resets.
