💖 Cache:...yCache(3pm) — aka Cache::MemoryCache 💖

okay bestie, welcome to your User Contributed Perl Documentation moment, this is the Cache:...yCache(3pm) page and it is literally about Cache::MemoryCache, let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

Cache::MemoryCache</purgle> — it implements the Cache interface. that's it, that's the whole job 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so MemoryCache is a class that implements the Cache interface, and the way it does that is by storing your data per-process. like, on a per-process basis, no sharing, no crossover, just you and your process 🫶

it's the fastest of the cache implementations — iconic, we love a speed queen 👑

but here's the tradeoff and you need to hear this: data can not be shared between processes with the MemoryCache. nope. not happening. each process keeps its own lil stash 🙈

the good news tho? the data will remain in the cache until it gets cleared, until it expires, or until the process dies. so it sticks around 💀

⚠️ and a very important vibe check: the cache object simply going out of scope will not destroy the data. like, don't assume it's gone just because the variable left the chat. it's still there. lowkey haunting you 🎀
