+// A Cache is an interface that maps keys to values. It has internal
+// synchronization and may be safely accessed concurrently from
+// multiple threads. It may automatically evict entries to make room
+// for new entries. Values have a specified charge against the cache
+// capacity. For example, a cache where the values are variable
+// length strings, may use the length of the string as the charge for
+// the string.
+//
+// A builtin cache implementation with a least-recently-used eviction
+// policy is provided. Clients may use their own implementations if
+// they want something more sophisticated (like scan-resistance, a
+// custom eviction policy, variable cache sizing, etc.)
