MemoryCache

To the time to life, rather than to life in time.

中文

Minimalist in-memory KV storage, powered by HashMap and Minimal Quad Heap.

Cache Elimination Policy:

• Set method cleans up overflowed keys
• Active cycle cleans up expired keys

• Storage Data Limit: Limited by maximum capacity
• Expiration Time: Supported
• Cache Eviction Policy: LRU
• Persistent: None
• Locking Mechanism: Slicing + Mutual Exclusion Locking
• HashMap, Heap and LinkedList (excluding user KVs) implemented in pointerless technology

• Simple and easy to use
• High performance
• Low memory usage
• Use quadruple heap to maintain the expiration time, effectively reduce the height of the tree, and improve the insertion performance

• Set : Set key-value pair with expiring time. If the key already exists, the value will be updated. Also the expiration time will be updated.
• SetWithCallback : Set key-value pair with expiring time and callback function. If the key already exists, the value will be updated. Also the expiration time will be updated.
• Get : Get value by key. If the key does not exist, the second return value will be false.
• GetWithTTL : Get value by key. If the key does not exist, the second return value will be false. When return value, method will refresh the expiration time.
• Delete : Delete key-value pair by key.
• GetOrCreate : Get value by key. If the key does not exist, the value will be created.
• GetOrCreateWithCallback : Get value by key. If the key does not exist, the value will be created. Also the callback function will be called.
