NAME

DBI::Util::CacheMemory - a very fast but very minimal subset of Cache::Memory

DESCRIPTION

Like Cache::Memory (part of the Cache distribution) but doesn't support any fancy features.

This module aims to be a very fast compatible strict sub-set for simple cases, such as basic client-side caching for DBD::Gofer.

Like Cache::Memory, and other caches in the Cache and Cache::Cache distributions, the data will remain in the cache until cleared, it expires, or the process dies. The cache object simply going out of scope will not destroy the data.

METHODS WITH CHANGES

All options except "namespace" are ignored.

set

Doesn't support expiry.

purge

Same as clear() - deletes everything in the namespace.

METHODS WITHOUT CHANGES

clear
count
exists
remove

UNSUPPORTED METHODS
