Hi,

I meet one strange problem in our es cluster.  
When I submit one http request through curl, or submit it through java rest client, the request cache works well and I can see "hit\_count" keep increasing when submitting same requests.

But when I use java transport client, it seems it never uses request cache even if I use `SearchRequestBuilder.setRequestCache(true)` to setup it. Anyone meet same problem and how can I resolve it?

Below is my working environment:  
Elasticsearch version: 5.4.3  
Plugins installed: N/A  
JVM version: 1.8.0\_11  
OS version: 3.10.0-693.5.2.el7
