Is it okay for getsession req to be made for every protected route or I should cache it?
You can use useSession in the root layout of protected route. It will be fetched only once then,,, considering u use NextJs

You can do so using Redux or Zustand, or by using stored cookie, however the session won't be fresh then, so user maybe able to see the UI of your protected route even if the session has ended in server/db. make sure to check session on server side for request. Also look into better-auth getSession and useSession functions, both are different and one probably uses built in cache AFAIK

It should be that way. However you can use redis or any other similar approach to mitigate load on your auth server.

How to store custom data in session?
You can look into the customSession funtion. 
import { customSession } from "better-auth/plugins";
 
export const auth = betterAuth({
    plugins: [
        customSession(async ({ user, session }) => {
            const roles = findUserRoles(session.session.userId);
            return {
                roles,
                user: {
                    ...user,
                    newField: "newField",
                },
                session
            };
        }),
    ],
});
import { customSession } from "better-auth/plugins";
 
export const auth = betterAuth({
    plugins: [
        customSession(async ({ user, session }) => {
            const roles = findUserRoles(session.session.userId);
            return {
                roles,
                user: {
                    ...user,
                    newField: "newField",
                },
                session
            };
        }),
    ],
});
https://www.better-auth.com/docs/concepts/session-management#customizing-session-response This will not necessarily need storing the newField to the database. However customSession function doesn't support caching.
