Class CacheLongKeyLIRS<V>

  • Type Parameters:
    V - the value type

    public class CacheLongKeyLIRS<V>
    extends Object
    A scan resistant cache that uses keys of type long. It is meant to cache objects that are relatively costly to acquire, for example file content.

    This implementation is multi-threading safe and supports concurrent access. Null keys or null values are not allowed. The map fill factor is at most 75%.

    Each entry is assigned a distinct memory size, and the cache will try to use at most the specified amount of memory. The memory unit is not relevant, however it is suggested to use bytes as the unit.

    This class implements an approximation of the LIRS replacement algorithm invented by Xiaodong Zhang and Song Jiang as described in http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~zhang/lirs-sigmetrics-02.html with a few smaller changes: An additional queue for non-resident entries is used, to prevent unbound memory usage. The maximum size of this queue is at most the size of the rest of the stack. About 6.25% of the mapped entries are cold.

    Internally, the cache is split into a number of segments, and each segment is an individual LIRS cache.

    Accessed entries are only moved to the top of the stack if at least a number of other entries have been moved to the front (8 per segment by default). Write access and moving entries to the top of the stack is synchronized per segment.
