Builtin cache implementations

core.cache comes with a number of builtin immutable cache implementations, including (click through for specific information):

• FIFO cache
• LRU cache
• LU cache
• TTL cache
• LIRS cache
• Function-backed cache
• Naive cache

The core.cache implementations are backed by any map-like object. Additionally, each cache implements the Clojure map behaviors and can therefore serve as special maps or even as backing stores for other cache implementations. For caches taking a limit argument, the eviction policies tend not to apply until the limit has been exceeded.
