+	// Write body to the cache so that it can be read later. This
+	// will mess up the cache because the cache format will be
+	// inconsistent, res is not the same as body and they should
+	// be in sync before saving body to cache but here we don't
+	// yet have res. This issue arises when the user passes random
+	// flag, we are saving to cache the raw body returned but when
+	// random is passed the format of body is changed to only
+	// values unmarshalled in res because body is rebuilt from res
+	// so the cache will have different format of body. Disabling
+	// this cache for now seems like a good option, later we can
+	// figure out how to make this body and body when random is
+	// passed of same format.
+	// err = ioutil.WriteFile(file, []byte(body), 0644)
 
 	// Not being able to write to the cache file is a small error
 	// and the program shouldn't exit but should continue after
 	// printing the log so that the user can investigate it later.
