* Package name : libchi-memoize-perl Version : 0.07 Upstream Author : Jonathan Swartz <swa...@pobox.com> * URL : https://metacpan.org/release/CHI-Memoize * License : Artistic or GPL-1+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : memoization implementation backed by CHI CHI::Memoize is an implementation of the memoization technique using CHI. Memoize caches the inputs and outputs of a function, if the function is called again with the same inputs, CHI::Memoize intervenes and provides the cached result. For slow functions, time is saved, at the expence of space. CHI::Memoize provides the same facility as Memoize|Memoize, but backed by CHI|CHI. This means, among other things, that you can: * specify expiration times (expires_in) and conditions (expire_if) * memoize to different backends, e.g. File, Memcached, DBI, or to multilevel caches * handle arbitrarily complex function arguments (via CHI key serialization) For a bit of history and motivation, see http://www.openswartz.com/2012/05/06/memoize-revisiting-a-twelve-year-old-api The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl Group.
