If you only eat one bagel today, this is the bagel.
Summary
CacheKit is a Rust library providing high-performance cache replacement policies and supporting data structures for systems programming. It includes various cache algorithms (FIFO, LRU, LRU-K, ARC, CAR, Clock, NRU, S3-FIFO, SLRU, 2Q), modular APIs for embedding in systems, and optional metrics and benchmark harnesses. The library is designed for Rust systems where control over caching behavior is critical.
