Proposal to Integrate SIEVE Eviction Algorithm
Hi there,
Our team (@1a1a11a) has developed a new cache eviction algorithm, called SIEVE. It’s simple, efficient, and scalable.
Why SIEVE could be a great addition:
- Simplicity: Integrating SIEVE is straightforward, usually needing to change less than 20 lines of code on average.
- Efficiency: On skewed workloads, which are typical in web caching scenarios, SIEVE is top-notch.
- Cache Primitive: SIEVE is not just another algorithm; it's a primitive that could enhance or replace LRU/FIFO queues in advanced systems like LeCaR, TwoQ, ARC, and S3-FIFO.
Welcome to dive into the details on our website sievecache.com and on our SIEVE blog.
We would love to explore the possibility of integrating SIEVE into groupcache. We believe it could be a beneficial addition to the library and the community.
Looking forward to your feedback!
I believe this repo is abandoned, We've been maintaining a fork https://github.com/groupcache/groupcache-go with optional S3FIFO
Tailscale maintain their own fork too, m~aintained by none other than Brad Fitzpatrick himself~ where Brad Fitzpatrick currently works. https://github.com/tailscale/groupcache/
Edit: Actually it's maintained by someone else at Tailscale, I misremembered!
Thanks, I didn't know tailscale was maintaining a fork!
I maintained a fork at mailgun for years, but now I maintain the implementation at https://github.com/groupcache which is very different from the original library.
It no longer uses global variables and has abstracted away the internal cache to allow other implementations to be used. Of interest to me is a lock free cache, which greatly improves performance on high concurrency systems.

Thank you for sharing this repo! It looks like it uses LRU as the eviction algorithm?

It has optional support for S3-FIFO https://github.com/groupcache/groupcache-go/blob/main/README.md#otter-cache
