Comment (by DJPaul):

 Such a short-lived cache would have little value to the significant
 majority of BuddyPress of sites. However, there is no harm in keeping it.
 Having it stored in a separate cache group surely is better than
 everything getting flushed so frequently. I think using `strpos` to
 identify the query is going to be too naive, but the idea's sound.

 Another idea is updating the last_activity timestamps less frequently.
 Say, every 15 minutes instead of every 5 minutes. We'd still not want this
 to destroy all the cached activity groups, so the work here is still
 useful/required. But maybe that's a discussion to be had in its own ticket
 if it's something we want to pursue with this batch of changes.
