Save data on machine and fetch fast. Local cache. Sometimes we need to save the data in the machine where we want to use that. This makes the fetching data fast. We may want that the data persist even when machine restart or it should not persist.This library has both option.
Library support two type .
- All the data in the memory
- Save all data in file in disk and load some data in memory for fast access
Get the library:
go get -u github.com/amitiwary999/go-cache
Import library:
import (cache "github.com/amitiwary999/go-cache")
init first type of cache
cacheRing := cach.NewCacheRingtype
type is the data type of the key of cache. Like int16, int32, string etc.
sizeOfCache is the number of keys of cache.
init second type of cahce
bigCache := cache.NewBigCacheRing(sizeOfCache)
sizeOfCache is the number of keys of cache present in memeory(this is not the limit for the keys we save in file).
JLMP250:go-cache amitt$ go test -timeout 30m -bench=. -benchmem -memprofile memprofile.out -cpuprofile profile.out -benchtime=20s -count=5 goos: darwin goarch: arm64 pkg: github.com/amitiwary999/go-cache BenchmarkBigCache-10 1000000000 2.102 ns/op 0 B/op 0 allocs/op BenchmarkBigCache-10 1000000000 2.139 ns/op 0 B/op 0 allocs/op BenchmarkBigCache-10 1000000000 2.172 ns/op 0 B/op 0 allocs/op
When I tried with map size 400000 there is almost no allocation. But when I increase the size and save the 800000 key on map the result was
BenchmarkBigCache-10 1 2409240291 ns/op 206634832 B/op 5508270 allocs/op BenchmarkBigCache-10 1 2371712709 ns/op 206603024 B/op 5508174 allocs/op BenchmarkBigCache-10 1 2471930375 ns/op 206604184 B/op 5508217 allocs/op
See the allocation. Suddenly there is lot of allocation and most happening in save where we use map to save the key offset.
