How often do encrypted files call to hub for datasealer ? Every request
or just when needs to write session file (storageAccessInterval) / read
session file from filesystem ?

If encrypted cookiesession is going to hit hub for every request then
it makes cookiesession less appealing. Would it be possible to have
this that agent asks hub for key it doesn't have in memory and agent
does encryption/decryption ?
(Hub would have rotating datasealer just for agent sessions (possible
to use different sealer / agent)) ?
