lru

Package lru implements a generic least-recently-used cache with near O(1) perf.

LRU Cache

A least-recently-used (LRU) cache is a cache that holds a limited number of items with an eviction policy such that when the capacity of the cache is exceeded, the least-recently-used item is automatically removed when inserting a new item. The meaining of used in this implementation is either accessing the item via a lookup or adding the item into the cache, including when the item already exists.
