js-sieve v0.0.4

This is a modern cache implementation, inspired by the SIEVE is Simpler than LRU: an Efficient Turn-Key Eviction Algorithm for Web Caches (NSDI'24) paper. It offers state-of-the-art efficiency and scalability compared to other LRU-based cache algorithms.

Based on the Go implementation (JS implementation is without mutex). All credits to @scalalang2.

Basic Usage

import { Sieve } from 'js-sieve';

const cache = new Sieve<string, string>(1000);
cache.set("hello", "world")
const [v, _] = cache.get("hello");
console.log(v) // => "world"
