I built a Ruby gem that handles memoization with a ttl

In plain words

Memo TTL is a Ruby gem that caches method results with time-based expiration and automatic eviction of least-used entries. Built for Ruby developers, it combines memoization with TTL (time-to-live) and LRU cache capabilities in a thread-safe package. The tool is designed to help optimize performance in applications by reducing redundant computations while ensuring cached data doesn't persist indefinitely.

From the sources

MemoTTL is a thread-safe memoization utility for Ruby that supports TTL (Time-To-Live) and LRU (Least Recently Used) eviction. It's designed for scenarios where memoized values should expire after a period and memory usage must be constrained. - mishalzaman/memo_ttl

  A hash array-mapped trie implementation in C2023 · github.com · ▲171

  Long-simmering side project that is finally ready to see the light. HAMTs are a cool persistent data structure and implementing one has been a lot of fun. Beyond the code, there is likely some value in the extensive and largely complete implementation docs; basic benchmarks are linked in the README, too. Kind of aiming to be "the libavl for HAMTs". That is obviously a high and aspirational bar but a distinct possibility if it stirs up a little interest and/or contribution. Anyways, it's time for this to go out, collect feedback and maybe even some use outside of toy projects. Let me…

  Goru, an experimental, Go-inspired concurrency library for Ruby2023 · github.com · ▲6

  Hey folks, wanted to show this off and get feedback. Still early/experimental but there are quite a few concepts I'm excited about here. This project came about while writing a program in Go and loving its approach to concurrency. Being a long-time Rubyist I immediately started to think about what similar concepts might look like in Ruby. I set out with two main design constraints: 1. Lightweight: I didn't want routines to be backed by fibers or threads. Having been involved some in the async project (https://github.com/socketry/async), I had some experience using…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  I built a hardware processor that runs Python▲983

  Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
