.SH "NAME"
DBI::Util::CacheMemory \- a very fast but very minimal subset of Cache::Memory
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Like Cache::Memory (part of the Cache distribution) but doesn't support any fancy features.
.PP
This module aims to be a very fast compatible strict sub-set for simple cases,
such as basic client-side caching for DBD::Gofer.
.PP
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 \fInot\fR
destroy the data.
