is jquery.js cached?

Hello

In wordpress, it is really a a headache to handle jquery.js when optimize the sites to improve faster speed for mobile mode. If is is not deferred loading, the page loading speed will be slower since the page will show up until jquery.js has been loaded, that might the reason why also google pagespeed insight suggest make it deferred. but, if it is deferred loading, there will lots of issue at frontend if make jquery.js deferred loading since it is related to other APP.

It is has not be resolved even if I use Autoptimize plugin, and the author said:

you’re asyncing jquery.js and that breaks things (which is why I did not propose to add it to the async-field myself).

After jQuery Updater is activated, I found the suggestion on Google pagespeed insight disappear, does that mean jquery.js cached?

Thanks.
