Description

From comment: https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/pull/26841/files#r1283199421

I'd be okay with implementing an intentionally slow/blockable cache for this, but I'm not great at envoy integration tests, so it would be nice if someone else could collab for that part.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the referenced PR comment and understand the cache filter's current test coverage. Explore the existing integration test framework in Envoy to design a test that simulates a slow cache. Implement a blocking or slow cache implementation for testing purposes.
