There might be other things one might want to cache, but I don't think the decision whether 
a method should be intercepted is cached by the interceptor. Whether a class/method is intercepted
is CDI config information which is in this case is driven by the interceptor binding annotation.

Also the @ValidateExecutable processing is a once off thing imo.
