cachepp

can't think of a good pun

Overview

cachepp is a caching framework written in C++, designed for easy creation of caches with arbitrary eviction schemas and storing arbitrary data. The framework comes with several examples, a tutorial, interface api documentation, and automated correctness and performance testing. The goal is to provide a framework which is both robust enough to be used in a production library for developers, and flexible enough to be an experimental testbed for researchers and students.
