jitcache is a just-in-time key-value cache that is thread/process safe. jitcache also prevents repeated computation when multiple workers request the same value.

jitcache was designed to improve the performance of Plot.ly Dash apps by caching results and reducing CPU load.

Basic Usage

from jitcache import Cache
import time


cache = Cache()


@cache.memoize
def slow_fn(input_1, input_2, input_3=10):
    print("Slow Function Called")
    time.sleep(1)
    return input_1 * input_2 * input_3


print(slow_fn(10, 2))

Output:

Slow Function Called
40
