Are you thinking about already-cached container images on the host level ? Not sure how AZP fits in here?
Since you mentioned it, what I've done before when it comes to improving CI builds, is to use karpenter + local SSD mounts with very large instance types in an idle timeout of ~1h. This allowed us to have very performant build machines at a low cost. The first build of the day took a while to get going, but for the price-benefit perspective it was great.
