MapMaker to create a bounded cache #236

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

I'm using a computing map for things whose values are quite heavy and could
use cleanup.  I'd like to restrict to a particular number of entries, or
attempt to.  The behavior would be that after entries go over a certain
limit, the least recently used one gets knocked off.

something like this...

MapMaker().lru(20, new CleanUp<V>(){
   public void cleanup(V toCleanup){
      //close resources   
   }
}).makeComputingMap(new Function(K, V){
   public V apply(K key){
      return expensiveResource(key);
   } 
});

We don't like LRU because it inevitably leads to locking in get(). We are, 
however,
experimenting with lock-free eviction algorithms such as clock-pro, so that you 
can
get the boundedness you desire without sacrificing concurrency.

that works for me. 

looking closer at my request, I've noticed there are 2 enhancements: 
boundedness and
a hook for cleaning up evicted resources.  are you ok with both being here, or 
should
I open another issue for cleanup?

Feel free to split them up. We are working on them separately.

Changed title: MapMaker - removal notification
Changed state: Duplicate

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Kevin, not sure why you merged. There are two distinct features: bounded size, 
and removal notifcations.

the accident was my changing the summary on this one at the same time as I 
dup'd it 
out. Someone should still file a separate issue about the removal notification.

Given that we already have issue #167 to track the bounded size, let's use this 
issue to track removal 
notification, as it has a perfect use case.

I guess the description here does focus more on the boundedness, so I'll move 
this back into 167 (sorry Kevin) 
and create a new one for removal.
