Clarify that credentials from file are loaded only once.

@cjyclaire cjyclaire requested a review from awood45 February 26, 2018 06:06
README.md Outdated
* From an instance profile when running on EC2, or from the ECS credential provider when running in an ECS container with that feature enabled.
* If using `~/.aws/config` or `~/.aws/credentials` a `:profile` option can be used to choose the proper credentials.

**The shared configuration files are being loaded ONLY when a service client is initialized.**

Proposed wording change:

**Shared configuration is loaded only a single time, and credentials are provided statically at client creation time. Shared credentials do not refresh.**
