"""``cacheutils`` contains consistent implementations of fundamental
cache types. Currently there are two to choose from:

  * :class:`LRI` - Least-recently inserted
  * :class:`LRU` - Least-recently used

Both caches are :class:`dict` subtypes, designed to be as
interchangeable as possible, to facilitate experimentation. A key
practice with performance enhancement with caching is ensuring that
the caching strategy is working. If the cache is constantly missing,
it is just adding more overhead and code complexity. The standard
statistics are:

  * ``hit_count`` - the number of times the queried key has been in
    the cache
  * ``miss_count`` - the number of times a key has been absent and/or
    fetched by the cache
  * ``soft_miss_count`` - the number of times a key has been absent,
    but a default has been provided by the caller, as with
    :meth:`dict.get` and :meth:`dict.setdefault`. Soft misses are a
    subset of misses, so this number is always less than or equal to
    ``miss_count``.

Additionally, ``cacheutils`` provides :class:`ThresholdCounter`, a
cache-like bounded counter useful for online statistics collection.

            can work in some cases, as well. This argument can also be
            a callable which accepts no arguments and returns a mapping.
        scoped (bool): Whether the function itself is part of the
            cache key.  ``True`` by default, different functions will
            not read one another's cache entries, but can evict one
            another's results. ``False`` can be useful for certain
            shared cache use cases. More advanced behavior can be
            produced through the *key* argument.
        typed (bool): Whether to factor argument types into the cache
            check. Default ``False``, setting to ``True`` causes the
            cache keys for ``3`` and ``3.0`` to be considered unequal.

    As you can see above, the API is kept similar to
    :class:`collections.Counter`. The most notable feature omissions
    being that counted items cannot be set directly, uncounted, or
    removed, as this would disrupt the math.

    Use the ThresholdCounter when you need best-effort long-lived
    counts for dynamically-keyed data. Without a bounded datastructure
    such as this one, the dynamic keys often represent a memory leak
    and can impact application reliability. The ThresholdCounter's
    item replacement strategy is fully deterministic and can be
    thought of as *Amortized Least Relevant*. The absolute upper bound
    of keys it will store is *(2/threshold)*, but realistically
    *(1/threshold)* is expected for uniformly random datastreams, and
    one or two orders of magnitude better for real-world data.

    This algorithm is an implementation of the Lossy Counting
    algorithm described in "Approximate Frequency Counts over Data
    Streams" by Manku & Motwani. Hat tip to Kurt Rose for discovery
    and initial implementation.
