Hello All, Looking at the docs for core.cache: https://github.com/clojure/core.cache
There is mention that support for SoftCache (caching using soft references) is not supported as the clache implementation was buggy and so not (yet) brought over. We are looking to add soft-reference based caching to one of our applications and I was wondering if anyone could shed light on what the issues with clache's implementation were (i.e. is a total loss, or would it potentially be a good place for us to start, and so perhaps implement something that could be submitted back). For background: Our ideal solution would be something like a LRU cache that had a fixed-memory constraint (e.g. some % of the total memory available to the box and/or JVM) so that we can minimize trips to the data store yet still ensure the application doesn't start paging due to too large a cache in an otherwise pretty simple/vanilla environment (i.e. no updates, read-only data). Also open to other approach than core.cache that are being used by others in the clojure community (e.g. wrapping ehcache or memcache-d, jcs etc). thanks, bill -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
