Summary:
Perl Cache is the successor to the popular File::Cache and
IPC::Cache perl libraries. This project unifies those modules under
the generic Cache::Cache interface and implements Cache::FileCache,
Cache::MemoryCache, Cache::SharedMemoryCache, and
Cache::SizeAwareFileCache.

When you say successor to File::Cache does that means File::Cache
will not be maintained as a separate module anymore?
There are no features in File::Cache that will not exist in
Cache::FileCache and Cache::SizeAwareFileCache.
DeWitt,
Have you though about making SharedMemoryCache flush to disk if it
becomes full but before it's time to expire the data?
I've done a lot of thinking about a multi-layered cache
implementation. The API would be the same, but it would be clever
about using MemoryCache -

Sounds like Joshua Chamas' Tie::Cache module. It provides a
size-limited LRU cache.

Good idea. I'll add that to the 0.04 feature list as well.
Thanks!
